Libellula quadrimaculata
Four Spotted Chaser
This year in England seems to have been very good for the Four Spotted Chaser. On a trip to Thursley Common back in Surrey in mid July they seemed to be everywhere and I cannot remember seeing quite so many before at a single site. Back nearer to home at Highstead, just south of Reculver, there were a few showy individuals which allowed me to grab a few pleasing images and take the time to study this species. As with a lot of Chasers, they would fly out and often return to the same perch. This thankfully made the task a little easier to take some photos.

Hello Marc! It's a real pleasure to see it again so at the end of season! But 4 images only: I find the very short series! ;-) Always a big precision for these pictures! Greetings, M.

Some individuals are extremely beautiful; surly they are not scarce in your area...
Pic N°2 stands out!
I see you were not long to pic Nathalie's idea to frame your photos with a white border! LOL!
Yes with the dark background to the blog the white border makes the photos stand out well. Just keep a dark background please.
SupprimerDon't worry Marc!
SupprimerBeautiful captures, Marc! Your photos have such wonderful detail, as always!
