Tholymis tillarga
Tholymis tillarga, the Coral-tailed Cloudwing, is a medium sized red dragonfly with brown and white hindwing patch. The female lacks the white patches on hindwings compared to the male. A crepuscular dragonfly, active at the time of sunset and sometimes at sunrise.
I don't think I have seen this red dragonfly in my garden before... http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:T...
thanks Nuwan. First time I've seen this beauty in my garden! Sorry the photo is not so sharp... I'll try for a better one next time I see it.
