Cherry-faced Meadowhawk

Cherry-faced Meadowhawk Sympetrum internum

A seemingly common species in our area and identified in-part on range, the very similar Ruby Meadowhawk appears to have a more southerly range. For difinitive ID you need to examine fiddly bits so we will call anything that looks the part Cherry-faced, not very scientific but practical.

Flies July to September.
