    Default Dragonflies

    OK I thought that the dragonfly in the second photo was a Southern Hawker.

    Today I actually did captured the Southern Hawker which is the first photo.

    Note the legs on the Southern Hawker (First photo) are solid black . The legs in the second photo are brown and black plus the insect is much lighter
    I cannot find the second dragonfly any where.
    Any ideas as to which it might be please ?
