Four-Spotted Chasers
There are dozens of Four-Spotted Chasers over the ponds here:
They are such entertaining dragonflies:
I’ve seen them before, here at RSPB Ham Wall:
This one is in the perfect position in the reeds:
It flies away and then comes back with its head hidden behind a reed:
I move slowly around it, expecting to fall in the pond at any moment, and then get a shot:
Lovely.
