There were a few of these flitting around, seem to be smaller than the ones I spotted end of last summer though.

Lovely photos, Rolf!:thumbsup:
Maybe they had just emerged from cocoons and were still stretching their wings?
Their wings certainly do look small in proportion to their body sizes!
Thanks Catherine, yes perhaps, will monitor over the next month.:)
Nice captures :)
It is probably a young one as it has complete wings and hasn't yet had a scrap over a female. The more mature ones are usually torn and have chunks missing from their wings
