      They’re not native here, but not a bad invasive as far as I know.

   What a beautiful shade of purple. I haven’t ever seen one, either.

      I don’t know what their range is. I do know it’s an introduced species here though.

   Wow – what a beauty. I have not seen a pink, sorry roseate, dragonfly before.

      They’re very attractive. I don’t see them often, so I’m happy when I do.

   A new species for me. An interesting colour.

      The color varies a bit in the pink to purple range, but it’s pretty distinctive.
