Perithemis tenera
Eastern Amberwing Dragonfly is 3/4 to 1 inch long with a wingspan of 1 and 3/4 inches. The dragonfly is mainly a yellowish brown color; it has a yellow face with a brown thorax and brownish yellow abdomen. Its wings, as said in the name, are amber colored with red stigmas.
Strong wind was blowing and it was kept returning to perch on a stick beside a small turtle at a city maintained retention pond.
