Swamp Darner
(Epiaeschna heros)
Smithtown, NY June 11, 2005
While videoing birds visiting my fish pond I noticed a large Darner cruising the area. It had the size and shape of the familiar Green Darner but had unfamiliar markings.
I used this photo from OdeNews to make the tentative ID.
Another possibility is Swamp Darner.
The opinion of all responders is Swamp Darner.
These photos are captures from a ten minute video
