Gold-tipped Darner

A Gold-tipped Darner (Gynacantha tibiata) was an amazing dragonfly at La Selva Biological Station. It patrolled back and forth, low over the jungle pond we searched on 15 July 2017. What was different was that it would occasioonally stop and hover in mid-air. This species inhabits forest ponds from Costa Rica south into Ecuador, Peru, and Venezuela.
