Dragonfly and Anole on Tuesday

This dragonfly spent a lot of time near the tomato plants today, returning again and again to the same perches.

I researched dragonflies for a little while but couldn’t find one just like this. It’s probably a common species (as usual when I’m trying to identify an insect) that I missed as I looked through photos.

Another side view of the dragonfly.

I love dragonfly faces–they always give the appearance of a cheerful smile.

Screen door anole, on the edge of the screen door.

And a little later when the light had changed, as he showed off his dewlap and did a push-up.
