COMMON SPREADWING

Note the eyes are spaced differntly, as well as the wings not closing together like the bluets and forktails.

The elusive female flitting about while I slogged about in soggy sneakers

Missed opportunity, I was soaking wet knees down and light fading, but she was laying eggs in the stem of a reed and did not want witnesses.
