I hope there's enough here for an ID. Underneath view. Dragonfly observed by Aussiegall & myself. We were both struck by the size of this dragonfly (it was BIG) and the brown/yellow colour. Its flight was low (1m or lower) and direct. Stopped briefly then flew on.

NIce One. I'm only familiar with Southern Evening Darner, but based on the shape/size of the terminalia it is clearly an Eastern Evening Darner, supported by location.
