Description
The Blue Dasher Dragonfly is a common sight throughout the Americas and is always a treat with its blue color. The Blue Dasher is of the Skimmer family of dragonflies and one weird thing to note about them. Their scientific name is: Pachydiplax longipennis and the "longipennis" means "Long wing," but their wings are not noticeably longer than most dragonflies.
