Female Green-eyed Damselfly 3582 - a photo on Flickriver

            Green-eyed Blue-rumped Forktail, about 39mm long, and resting on a a one foot section of dead nine foot tule reed, a giant sedge. 

The Tule Reeds (Schoenoplectus acutus) circle the swamp and are very common. Also where the term "tule ground fog" that blankets the Central Valley of California during "the rainy season" and when visibility is literally no more than ten feet in front of your car. I drove in it once in 1966, and will never again. Unfortunately, it really can't be forecasted. Btw, it's pronounced according to damselflies I know, "Tooley."
