MrsG and I took a little stroll this morning to see what was happening with the local Odonata. We were a few weeks later than last year and it seemed to show in the numbers that were on show. Common Darters - Sympetrum striolatum were around doing 'what comes naturally' and sunning. We also spent some time trying to get a photo of a Brown Hawker - Aeshna grandis in flight. Not the easiest of tasks and one I find impossible to do without laughing as the shutter fires as I know the Hawker isn't where it's supposed to be. I eventually came up with this one, not exactly in focus but it looks like it's spotted the Red Baron at 2 o'clock low. I like it

I was watching the dragonflies at a local pond this morning and wondering if you were going to post any pics this year, very nice. I couldn't get a pic myself but there were plenty flying around
