Variegated Meadowhawk


We are Albuquerque New Mexico on a somewhat lieserly trip to the Festival of the Cranes at Bosque del Apache NWR this morning, but this is from our last festival in South Texas.

The Veriegated Meadowhawk is one of the showier dragonflies. This specimen, from the National Butterfly Center​ in Mission, Texas is a particularly bright one.

Nikon P610 at 2300mm equivalent field of view (using some digital Perfect Image Zoom) from about 7 feet. 1/250 @ ISO 220 @ f6.5. Processed in Lightroom.
