Tawny Pennant (Brachymesia herbida) is a common dragonfly on Aruba.
Its favourite habit is to sit high in Acacia trees while looking for small butterflies and other insects.
It can be seen in good numbers around sewage ponds and of course Bubali.
It is a much longer and more slender species than its relative Brachymesia Furcata, also seen here daily.

Tawny Pennant (Brachymesia herbida). Female.
