| The Selys' Sundragon (Helocordulia selysii) is a member of the Corduliidae family of dragonflies. The species occurs in the southeastern United States and ranges west to east Texas. The two shots of a Selys' Sundragon shown here were taken in the San Jacinto National Forest, San Jacinto Co., Texas, in March, 2008. The insect did not perch while we watched it, but I was able to get a few in-flight shots. These images were taken with a Canon EOS 1D Mark III and EF 300mm F/4 L IS lens and 2X extender. |
