Ladies and Gentlemen,

I photographed this specimen today at Buffalo Springs WMA in Grainger
County.  It is a female, and was ovipositing in mud along Buffalo Creek.  It
was a large dragonfly, noticeably larger than a Great Blue Skimmer perched
nearby.  My best guess is a Swamp Darner which appears to fit most of the
criteria.  

Any comments will be appreciated.

Best regards,

Harold Howell

Rutledge, Grainger County, TN
