Sympetrum vicinum
This Dragonfly (least I think it's a Dragonfly and not a Damselfly) was just hanging onto this stick for the longest time. Such a pretty colour.

You're welcome, I'm glad I helped :)
Thank you Jopy - yes, too me they look exactly alike! Great investigative work!
Hi, wildsweld, maybe this is Sympetrum vicinum, Autumn Meadowhawk, here is the link and you can compare: http://eol.org/data_objects/22464103
Oh, great idea thank you taka.ita!
It is a dragonfly and it is probably a Sympetrum species, but I know little about non-European dragonflies. If you post it to the Global Dragonflies and Damselflies mission, somebody might be able to help.
