Yes - Archilestris capnopterus, female. Great shots Jeff! I just love these things, Eric.

Thanks Eric. At REGUA I had the treat of seeing one of these in slow flight with a dragonfly dangling in its long lanky legs. Quite a sight to behold! Unfortunately it did not land within photography distance but instead disappeared into the canopy.
