Gray Petaltail Dragonfly (Tachopteryx thoreyi)

Came across this fellow in Watkins Glen State Park (NY). A Gray Petaltail Dragonfly. The body is about 3" long.
Interestingly - this is one dragonfly we as fly fishers may not care about. The Larva/Nymphs do not need standing water to develop. They survive in mud or seepage areas on steep gorge faces.
