Yes, I agree, Gallicissa...on the third photo down, I've been researching...can't decide if it is an inmature male or female Widow Skimmer. It's not a very clear photo or close up enough. I've seen photos of the young male and the adult female with the gold lines. Thank you for your I.D.
I, like many of you I am sure, love the beauty that nature has to offer. I am originally from the Cleveland, Ohio area..."transplanted" here to a small country town just southeast of Canton, Ohio. I thought it may be nice to share some of what I experience here everyday at what my husband and I call..Wishnik Woods. To sit on our dock and watch all the dragonflies play tag and do their acrobats for hours couldn't make me happier(but who has the time for that?). I enjoy gardening and in my photos you'll see many up close and personal shots. I thank God everyday for my husband, family and our dream come true. Our little piece of paradise is not a showplace by any means, just a simple cabin nestled back in the woods, the place we call home. In a nutshell, a little of this and a little of that is what you'll find here in Wishnik Woods!

The first one looks to me like a male Widow Skimmer Tholymis citrina. Again, I am happy to be corrected!

The third one from the top: my money is on immature male Widow Skimmer.
