My little garden friend

This little fella is out in the garden every afternoon when
I go out to water. He must really like the warm sun and the
cool spray of the water. His coloring is so gorgeous, a flaming
red-orange, I just had to get a picture of him. Some ancestor
of his was in our yard last year too, but I don't think it was him.
I don't think dragonflies live that long.
