Bingo! Looks like Archilestes grandis, "Great Spreadwing" damselfly. I don't
find it listed as a NY bug, but who knows?

Here is a link to a page that lists the Odanata of New York.

http://www.npwrc.usgs.gov/resource/d...fly/ny/toc.htm

It doesn't have pictures but you can copy and paste the individual
species into your search engine and find pictures there. I see that
while the Great Spreadwing has been reported down state there are
several other Spreadwings that are found in upstate N.Y..
