on spotting the fifth dragonfly species of the season!

Just a quick note to tell you about this dragonfly I just spotted down at Watermead. This pretty chap is a Southern Hawker (Aeshna cyanea). It had just been pouring down with rain and so he was hanging on to and old cow parsley stem. After photographing the Brown Hawker down at Watermead, and the Common Darter, Ruddy Darter and Broad-bodied Chaser at Bradgate Park this is my fifth dragonfly species of the year. Wooooo!
