Eastern Amberwing (Perithemis tenera)

This species is quite small, much smaller than the skimmers - the abdomen is short, relative to the very broad wings. This makes the shape of this species quite different from almost all other dragonflies. The entire wing is orange, except for the reddish markings on the leading edges. The eastern amberwing is among the wariest of dragonflies. They usually perch only over water.
