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. :))
