Little Cranberry Lake

Yesterday was very active at Little Cranberry Lake. Lots of dragonflies and damselflies flying constantly. The Eight-spotted Skimmers were especially prominent.



Eight-spotted Skimmers are named for the eight large black spots in their wings. The small black spots, the pterostigmas, aren't counted because all dragonflies have them. The white spots aren't counted because the females have only the black spots in their wings.
