Neat! Always great when a bug lands on you and remains quite still!
Tip:
Dragonflies can't put their wings back when they land; so their wings remain out-stretched and ready to fly
Damselflies can put their wings back when at rest and often will.
As a result what you have there is a damsel not a dragon

Ah Ha! A Damselfly it is then...thanks for the head's up! It landed on someone else. I was shooting a 70-200 with a 1.7 tele-extender. this little feller was at the absolute minimum focusing distance and then just barely.
