Coenagrionidae, Narrow-winged Damselflies, I would say. After checking tons of damselflies my closest candidate would be Enallagma geminatum. But since I actually have no IDeas about Odonata, please, verify!!! http://bugguide.net/node/view/1085965/bgimage Best match: http://bugguide.net/node/view/190128/bgimage Please, check very carefully EVERY marking! Good luck! You are free to try also the other ones ;-)... http://bugguide.net/node/view/380/bgpage?from=5
