Eastern Amberwing Dragonfly: Roger’s Pond Park, Kennebunk, Maine, USA, August 2024 — Among my favorite dragonflies, the diminutive Eastern Amberwing, is only the size of large bumblebee. They are not all that common in Southern Maine, but there are usually a few at Roger’s Pond this time of year. I think this is a male, due to the solid amber wings, and, indeed, if so I only saw males at the pond yesterday. The females may have been further out among the lily pads.
