Pretty "meadowhawk" dragonfly

Dragonflies are neat little critters that enjoyable in summertime in Colorado and many other areas. One family of dragonflies are called "meadowhawks" and this bright goldish-yellow beauty is a Band-winged meadowhawk (I that this species has been 'lumped', or put together, with the Western meadowhawks). The males are red and the females are yellowish (but in the sun, they are bright gold looking).
