I am not sure if Blue-fronted Dancer damselflies (Argia apicalis) are always happy, but the ones that I spotted yesterday at Jackson Miles Abbott Wetland Refuge seemed to be smiling at me.
The beautiful light blue color on their upper bodies and their striking blue eyes make Blue-fronted Dancers relatively easy to spot and to identify.

Very nice Mike! I’ve managed to post my first dragon images of the year today.
Thanks. Your shots are amazing in that post–a great start to the new dragonfly/damselfly season.
The dragons are lovely and also I enjoyed your Corfu post, glad I saw your comment
Many thanks Ms Liz! I really appreciate that.
Beautiful blue.
The blue is really gorgeous Mike
You were the topic of conversation the other day. While out in a hot marsh hundreds of your ‘subjects’ hovered around us. I mentioned to Ellen that it was a perfect spot for you.
Thanks for thinking of me. Hot, sunny days are perfect for most species of dragonflies, even if it is somewhat miserable for humans.
That marsh area is 350,000 acres. Imagine how many there are 😂😂😂
Yikes. That is a lot of ground to cover. So much ground, so little time. 🙂
Very striking, Mike!
Thanks, Chris.
