  Dragonfly -  Female Blue-eyed Darner (Rhinoaeschna multicolor ) (aka Aeshna multicolor) ( aka Common Blue Darner) ...
This is a very nice picture of a female Blue-eyed Darner (Aeshna multicolor), probably the most common and widespread Aeshna in California, at least west of the Cascade/Sierra crest (though it is also common in the mountains and on the East Slope).
The shape of the cerci and lack of blue on the face, eyes, etc., tell you it is a female and the shape of the "T-spot" atop the frons identify the species.
Aeshna mixta is not even found anywhere in North America, let alone in California.

 Aeshna grandis
The Brown Hawker is found on sheltered lowland lakes and fens.
The species shows some tendency to wander, but not as much as Aeshna juncea.
This species is unlikely to be confused with any other due to its brown coloration and amber-tinted wings.

 Brown Aeshna
This large aeshna, also known as the brown hawker or brown aeshna, Aeshna grandis, was found trapped in a conservatory down the road.
The amber wings are a way to identify it even when it's hawking past on a sunny day but the yellow stripes on its thorax and blue marks on the abdomen are easier to see at close quarters.
I just can't get fine lines with it now, so I drew the smaller sketches with my new (fl ink) art pen.
