These digital images of male Libellula composita, Bleached Skimmers are by Susan Steele. They were taken on 8/13/2001 in Kern Co. at the Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake. The first 2 she took by sneaking up on the bug (which is hard to do). The next 2 are though her spotting scope which she thinks actually makes for nicer pictures and is easier to do.
