Description
A beautiful red dragonfly perched on a stem by the pond at Gibson Ranch. These amazing dragonflies are all over the place zooming here and there. You can pretty much sit anywhere and one will land next to you.

Love it, the head almost looks like chrome. This is a fascinating pose of the wings too, they use their wings to either harness light towards or reflect away from their body. It's a way of moderating their core temp and it looks like you caught him right in the middle of doing it! I'm no expert, but it looks like he is using his wings to harness light energy like a radar dish. :)
