These photos were taken at Governers' Bridge Road natural area in Prince George's County, Maryland, on June 9.
Being birders, primarily, we need to do some research on what species these are, and get back to you.... ID help welcome!
Spangled Skimmer or Eastern Pondhawk?:
This is a Window Skimmer....
The obligatory art shot....

Eastern Pondhawk female
Widow Skimmer
John - Thanks. I was looking through the Stokes dragonfly guide we have at home, and thought the first picture looked like a Spangled Skimmer. But Lisa and I have only done a little dragon-flying...
You might be right.
