Green in Green Grass, Pt. 4 - _TNY_0152
Stumbling over this little lady in the tall grass near the lower pond at Stensjödal in Tyresta National Park, I've learned that it is a female large redeye (Erythromma najas).
In case you're wondering about the name - it's mainly the blue males which have eyes that are a deep red but the mature females have red eyes as well though this one is young.
