An incomplete emergence of a dragonfly

Diane also photographed this interesting half-emergence. Not sure what happened here, but this adult darner was unable to complete its emergence from the larval skin. Not sure which darner it is, but could be the common green darner, which is fairly common at the garden. It is a migrant species that is always one of the first dragonflies to appear in the spring.
