Two recent images.
Firstly taken during a trip to Gibraltar Point LWT Nature Reserve where there were a few dragonflies flying around:
Common Hawker:
The second one was one that I have been trying to get for some time. European Hornets have become much more common over recent years. The problem is that they don't seem settle for very long around our way. We've had a few on the windfall apples that we have put on the "muck heap", but they aren't that clear as they are brown against brown/green. A few mornings ago, after a relatively cold night, this one as attached to our study window:
European Hornet:
Both were taken with a hand held Canon EOS5DIII. The Common Hawker was shot with a Tamron SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD G2, while the European Hornet was taken with a Sigma 105mm f2.8 Macro EX DG OS HSM,
