Description

Looks like a damselfly, but the shape of the wings is more rounded and dark in color. It was observed above a creek. In the fourth image it appears to be laying eggs on a leaf above the stream.

Description

This one was on the rocks when I passed by and slid into the stream when I came closer. About 3 inches long.

Due to the rust colored markings above the legs, I suspected this may be a rusty crayfish, but it doesn't seem to be in the right area for that. Not sure how to ID them.

There were many of them in an apple tree. When I shook the tree they all fell to the ground.
