Visiting Nature Outing- May 8, 2010

 

The following species were observed in Goochland County, Virginia during the morning of the 8th. The Ophiogomphus susbehcha (?) female is the first full adult that I have been fortunate enough to encounter and photograph. I was unsuccessful in my attempt to net her. The Robber Fly- Laphria index is the first I have observed and photographed.
