Nice dragonfly Chief! @doodlelist: the Roseate skimmer is native to the Americas.
It is supposed to be common in Kerala. Keep your video recorder ready too!!
Yes Yes I remember seeing them long back and I think its very common in Kerala. Is it? But I could not find it in Aruvikkara. I will keep it in my 'hit list'. Thanks Jemma for reminding it. :))
chief ,have you spotted the kangaroo lizard? Would be fun to see one.It seems it runs on it's two hind feet instead of crawling.
