I just looked at your blog and saw the photo of a dragonfly on a bird's wing.

Last night I was at Boscobel to see "Two Gentlemen of Verona" and saw the same type of dragonfly with the white "tail" and wondered what kind it was. 

I'd never seen one that looked like this, and there it was on your blog!

Susan and I have decided what kind it is.  What do you think?
