Variable Flutterer Dragonfy- Female


Variable Flutterer is (Rhyothemis variegata) another common resident dragonfly of Sri Lanka.  I observed and photographed  this female specimen in my own garden, like most of the dragonflies that appear on this blog.

    Why they called variable flutterer? Anything to do with their winds? Nice shots.
