Warm grassy land with a small stream nearby.
This is a relatively small dragonfly, about half the length of usual dranflies. I'm not sure whether it's a youngster or of a differnet genus.
Thanks Sukanya for the lead. The two posts under Organisms don't match with this. Will check under other sources, including Google. Thanks anyway.
Just a guess FEMALE Palpopleura sexmaculata (looks very similar to the picture in my guidebook...but only one photo from a different angle) and Google says it IS found in Sikkim. All the best for a quick ID of this BEAUTIFUL dragonfly.
