Please could someone ID this for me please haven't a clue what it is but itr was adamant I was going to take his pic becasue it kept landing on the path in front of me
Almost certainly a male Black Tailed Skimmer Babs.
Orthetrum cancellatum
Wow thanks rolf, that is certainly a mouthful. I have never seen one before but we saw many at the RSPB Leighton Moss today. Thanks for the ID.
Fantastic capture Babs. Well done.
Iwas going to say a skimmer of some sort but you beat me to it Rolf. Good on you
I wouldn't have known. Lovely capture.
Thankyou Louise, good job we got some experts on board
I only knew because I'd looked one up earlier in the week.
Oh. I knew it was a skimmer but not which. They are facinating insects aren't they.
I can't get over the way that one I cptured on video is actually eating ugh
