Description:

"Russet-tipped Clubtail (Stylurus plagiatus) 1 August 2016 Fort Clark Springs Brackettville, Kinney County, Texas We're fairly sure that this is the correct ID for Russet-tipped Clubtail. We'd never photographed it before in the field if confirmed, experience counts. As the Mexican saying goes: ""Más sabe el diablo por viejo que por diablo."" A second, third and so forth meeting with this clubtail and it will be readily recognized. It was a few feet into the water perched on a dead tree limb sticking out of the water at the spring-fed pool found at Fort Clark Springs. We couldn't get closer to take the side shot, or lateral view, before it was gone. Odonata Central reports its range as being from the ""eastern and southwestern U.S. to Nuevo León, Mexico."" Russet-tipped Clubtail is an authentic resident of the Western Hemisphere.
