| Description |
I think these may be Common Darters (Sympetrum striolatum), with the female on the left and the male on the right. At St Ippolyts, Hertfordshire, there is a bridge over Ippillitts Brook and the brook is dammed so it becomes a pond. On 12 September 2014, I found hundreds of dragonflies in pairs, flying over the pond and, I presume, depositing eggs (ovipositing). Then there were these two on a fence, just posing like this. It was one of the most impressive wildlife spectacles I have seen. To see my collections, go <a href="https://www.flickr.com/photos/anemoneprojectors/collections/">here</a>. |
