Dragonflies on Twigs

in Beauty of Creativity3 days ago

We surely often find this typical dragonfly around us. This dragonfly is one of the easy-found flying insects that frequently invited us to take shots, that what I did when I spotted it standing still on the dried grass. I managed to take the pictures with DSLR from a distance range and from this range I could freely take shots. Dragonfly belongs to the order Odonata, which refers to the characteristic of the wings ( the hindwing is broader than the forewing). Among many dragonflies, this dragonfly is classified into one of the giant dragonflies that have large wings and body. This dragonfly was a bit quiet hanging in the twig which allowed me to have some distance shots. Like most members of the genus, this dragonfly have a red abdomen that similar size to the black Sympetrum danae.
