Autumn Meadowhawk Dragonfly (Sympetrum vicinum) visiting my garden Aug 2025, Winnebago Co., WI. Dragonflies and other beneficial insects are always welcome in my yard, and I especially appreciate it when they pose for a photo and eat some garden pests.

Tentatively identifying this as a cardinal meadow hawk. I'm not very up on my insects.

Another insect that I find endlessly exciting: the Dragonfly!
More specifically, I think this guy was a Variegated Meadowhawk (Sympetrum Corruptum[?])
I'll never get enough of how cool they are in both form and function. 💕

A light blue, black and orange variegated meadowhawk dragonfly we rescued from the waves of the Pacific Ocean. My kid is cradling it in his hand. Its wings were stuck together and it was covered in sand.
We walked the injured dragonfly back to our hotel and very gently washed it off and helped it dry out and relax and recover in safety.
After about 90 minutes of first aid and rest while clutching my kid’s finger, this adorable variegated meadowhawk dragonfly took off again into the sky. Super happy day.
About a year ago, my kids and I took a long walk on the beach, exploring tide pools. We rescued this dragonfly from the waves. Best day ever! Story in the Alt text. #Dragonfly #Rescue #Entomology #Meadowhawk #PNW #Tidepooling #ORcoast #Nature #Photography #Wildlife #BugsAreCool
2024-09-29 - Autumn Meadowhawk - It was funny because I took this photo shortly after saying I wasn't sure how people got such closeups of dragonfly's because they never stay still.

Another dragonfly - one of the red Meadowhawks from the Upper Midwest. I’m leaning toward #Sympetrum obtrusum.
