Dragonfly - Wandering Glider

I found this dead dragonfly next to the pool. What a pity that such a pretty insect has to die. I think it is a Wandering Glider (Pantala flavescens).
They are fairly common and their range extends into Asia, Australia and the Americas.

    As always, love the macros. Nothing lives forever.

    You are right Gaelyn, I would not want to live forever either.
