California Anisoptera (California Dragonflies)

Just a few photos of dragonflies taken in and around the San Gabriel foothills.  There are three individuals here: the first golden-colored guy was taken in the hills; the other two were buzzing round a pond in Pasadena.  I believe the red colored one is a Flame Skimmer or Libellula saturata, the blue one is a Blue Dasher Pachydiplax longipennis, and I’m still working on the first guy.
