The Ruby Meadowhawk (Sympetrum rubicundulum) is a species of dragonfly of the family Libellulidae. This variety of dragonfly was mostly found at the grassy, shallow end of our pond where it would hunt for insects.
Adult males are identifiable by a distinctive orange to brown face and red bodies. Females faces have same colors as males; bodies are brown to dark-red.
