I visited Cape May on July 19 and found many Dragonflies that I hadn't seen before. It took me this long to id them - my book only contains a couple hundred photos which apparently fall short of the voluminous varieties. If I mislabeled any please let me know. All of my photos are in the Cape May 7/19/2021 album in my Flickr account. Here's a few:

Fabulous set, Elliott. The dragons are beautiful but I love the nesting ospreys also.

Great shots !!! However some of your dragon IDs are off.
The first Banded Pennant is is actually a female Common Whitetail. The abdomen (tail), on the Banded is more narrow and dark with no spots on the side.
The other Banded Pennant and Twelve-spotted Pennant are Halloween Pennants. The bands are reddish not black and some of the bands go all the way from front to back of the wing. In Banded Pennants and Twelve-spotted Pennants the bands are black and (except for the tips) don't touch the back of the wing.
The ones labeled Yellow-legged Meadowhawk, look like Needham's Skimmers. Looks similar to a Golden-winged Skimmers. However, the thorax looks more like a Needham's.
The Female Slaty Skimmer is actually a female Four-spotted Pennant. Note the white stigmas.
