A pair of Large Red Damselflies in the heart shaped mating loop
That's a really good capture Beryl, do they actually fly like that?
Thank you Rolf
No I have never seen them fly in a mating loop but I can't be 100% sure. I didn't see them fly in that loop . They fly when he clutches the neck of the female and can fly around for quite a while then he lands on a convenient plant And then they make the loop. That is what I was watching I had to wait ages to capture it and it's a near perfect Heart shape. I was really pleased.
Here they have just settled on a plant the next phases were quite fascinating , watching then making the loop. I takes several minutes
really good pics, beryl. it's nice how they have made the 'heart' shape is'nt it
Yes Thank you Andrew. I think it's fascinating to watch as well.
Just love the expression on her face
