That's what we called them in Kentucky also. Don't know where that name came from.
And when I lived in Louisiana we had some really big ones there. About 6" long.

Used to catch them all the time in Louisiana. NO stinger but they can bite you. Especially the large ones.

Incredible photos. I love dragonflies! They are spirits of loved ones we have lost. Thanks so much for sharing.
