Oh great! Thank you so much. Actually I'm not native so to me, all of them are dragonflies :) and I don't know other words to describe them :) But thank you so much for your recommendation. Greetings!!!

Vanessa, it is actually not a dragonfly but a damselfly. This page explains some of the differences: http://insects.about.com/od/identifyaninsect/a/dragonordamsel.htm

Very nice first spotting on Noah! This is a damselfly rather than a butterfly. Welcome to the Project!
