Blue Marsh Hawk

Description:

The male is a fairly big dragonfly that once fully mature becomes pruinosed (a bit like the felt-look of a peach). It is almost entirely blue. They are quite easily scared, but seem to get used to your presence after a while and allow you to get closer. The eyes of the male are grey/blue. The mature female. Even when older the thoracic markings are prominent. The abdomen has become much darker at the edges. It will darken further still.

Habitat:

Spotted in Kaeng Krachan National Park, Thailand
