Face Shot

This is a second male variegated meadowhawk. This one let me get a close up of its face. Once again, I could swear a dragonfly is grinning at me. He appears to be quite the jolly fellow. Check out the two yellow spots that identify his species. This one is a younger male and not quite as red yet.
