Sympetrum corruptum
Brown, yellow and white dragonfly. There are brown and yellow stripes behind the eye. The sides of the thorax have white stripes with yellow dots at the ends. The abdomen has a colorful pattern all the way down. I have another spotting of this species with different coloration at: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/795...
On a Cape Honeysuckle branch in the backyard
Unfortunately it flew away before I could get a shot of the top to show the abdomen's pattern.
