Autumn meadowhawk (Sympetrum vicinum)

I have not seen a lot of dragonflies or damselflies around the FWG this year, but today was one of the better days, with several of these guys, a couple of common green darners, a tiny sedge sprite (damselfly), and 3 or 4 mosaic darners which did not land and flew much too fast to get a good look at, other than to note they were mosaic darners. With all the rarities turning up around the region, I keep hoping one or two will appear at the FWG.
