Taming a Southern hawker ?

Suspect the same Southern hawker dragonfly I'd seen before visited the garden yesterday, I watched it hunting for a while and it eventually hung up in a dried Euphorbia flowerhead. Rather fedup with the uninspiring background I decided to try and persuade the dragon to get onto my finger. Managed it but it took off again before I could take any photos. Repeated this process again, got it onto my finger again and it stayed there long enough for some photos before taking off again for a hunt. It actually came back again and hung up in the same plant whilst chewing on a ladybird.
