Hi Blake -= my best guess is Boreal Bluet aka Enallagma boreale or Northern
Bluet aka E. cyathigerum .Both look very similar and usually be determined
by male cerci. Boreal is one of the earliest damselflies to emerge.

 

Hope this helps somewhat 

 

Cheers - Derek B

Hi all;

I photographed a damselfly yesterday, and I am hoping someone might be able
to identify for it for me.  The photo and the information are here:
