Australian Emerald / Sentry Dragonfly

Hemicordulia australiae

Description:

50mm. A strong flyer and spend most of the time flying in the air.

Notes:

This dragonfly came face to face with my son, observing him. Kept hovering in front of us, blocking our path. We stood still and I started talking photos because it seemed that it was not going to perch at all. Apparently, these are the habit of this lovely creature ... :) (To take the pictures of this dragonfly we need a good camera, patience and luck - www.brisbaneinsects.com)
