Arrowhead Spiketail (Zoraena obliqua)

Observer

Date

June 2016

Place

Virginia, US (Google, OSM)

Description

I think this ID is correct. This was the only one of this species that I saw today, and it was larger than the other Spiketails by 1-2 cm. Perching in shaded bushes at the edge of a clearing in the woods, about 1m off the ground. Wary.
