Field Notes

Description:

mating pair. Female is larger and brown with short pale green wings. Male grey with green legs and black wings that extend past the abdomen.

Notes:

I've been observing this female since July 11 in the same clump of ornamental grass. See her almost every day. Have posted spottings of her feeding, stalking and right after she molted.
