I took a closer photo of what I suspect might be a Migrant Hawker than what currently appears on this page. It used to be on the main dragonfly page but since it's not being used anymore there, it might as well be moved here to the specific species.
Can anyone confirm my ID of this insect as a Migrant Hawker? mennonot 23:18, 9 July 2005 (UTC)
Your photo is of a Southern Hawker(Mature male. They look quite similar but the Southern is a much larger hawker than the Migrant and is predominantly green rather than blue. As males mature they aquire the blue stipes on the last segments of the tail.
Migrant Hawker in Colorado
I have a photo taken Sept 3, 2015 in Fort Collins, Colorado of a Migrant Hawker flying back and forth over our trampoline...diving low towards the trampoline and then darting up. My husband and I were zoning out on him just flying back and forth...back and forth. The photo showed up in my Facebook memories and I thought I would Google lens it to see what kind it was. Shocked to learn they don't habitat in the USA? Maybe it was someone's "pet" that escaped? I don't know, but he was beautiful and actually flew right up to me a few times and hovered.
