January 6 Update - 2021 Flight Range Expansion

One of the things we keep track of is the range of days that a species is seen in Ohio. We call this the flight range, this helps know when we should expect to start (or stop) looking for a species. By keeping track, when can also have some insight to on-going changes,

For 2021, we established 20 new early or late flight dates to existing species.

Species Common Name	New Flight	Date	iNat User	County
Azure Bluet	new late flight	11-Nov	rbarricklow	Lucas
Black-shouldered Spinyleg	new late flight	18-Sep	lundbergj	Hamilton

I should add that with Duckweed Firetail being newly identified for Ohio (Clermont Co), the range is all new at 14 Jul - 23 Jul. Duckweed Firetail - another great Odonata name!
