    Eight-spotted Skimmer

    This dragonfly was flying around our camp one evening and we noticed that he kept landing at the same place on a sumac branch. He was patient enough for me to get several photos of him as he came and went. One time he flew off, snatched a ladybug, returned and had dinner. These were taken along the John Day River in Oregon near Cottonwood Canyon State Park.

    Although I pity the ladybug, I prefer #2 of all three of them.
