Yesterday afternoon I dropped by the Econ River Wilderness Area. I had a meeting nearby, and I thought I’d go there early to check it out. I wasn’t expecting to find a lot there, but I was surprised at how few birds I found. I ended up devoting most of my attention to the many dragonflies that were there. I photographed four species, and two of them were new to me: a Roseate Skimmer and Bar-winged Skimmer.
