Beef Slough Boat Landing. Just south of Hwy 25 between Nelson and Wabasha. Wetlands with surrounding forest. Lots of Odonata activity here.

Eastern Forktail (Ischnura verticalis)
Photographed
These were the dominant species observed. Immature and mature present. More than 20 individuals. I included many images in case a misidentification would mean I missed another species.

Skimming Bluet (Enallagma geminatum)

Not certain on this one. Pretty sure it's not a forktail though.
