A few flying insect pics from the weekend:
Monarch Danaus plexippus
Common Wood-nymph Cercyonis pegala (flash shot)
Pearl Crescent Phyciodes tharos
Male Blue Dasher Pachydiplax longipennis
Blue Dasher Pachydiplax longipennis (I believe this is the female, but not sure)
I think this is also a Blue Dasher, but I'm not sure. In any event, the pearly diamond tabs on the wings were just stunning, particularly showing when this guy flew.
