Anne Elliott's photos with the keyword: Libellula quadrimaculata

About nine of us spent the day today at the eastern edge of the Rocky Mountains, at Bow Valley Provincial Park. The main focus was on birds of the area, but we were surrounded by wildflowers and insects, too. This provincial park is an amazing area for flowers at this time of the year. Lots of wild orchids, for a start! Not sure what the temperature was, but somewhere around 30C. I think this could be a Four-spotted Skimmer (Libellula quadrimaculata).

Another Four-spotted Skimmer (though in fact it has eight spots!). Seen at Bow Valley Provincial Park. A very messy background, unfortunately, but I rather liked the colouring of it.

I photographed this Dragonfly this morning at Griffith Woods. I think it might be a Four-spotted Skimmer (Libellula quadrimaculata).
