Do you remember Evinrude the Dragonfly, from the film 'The Rescuers' - and how he/she got his/her name?
Well, today we have Hozelock the Dragonfly! (Trumpets, please!:))
Hozelock got stuck inside the conservatory, but it wasn't fun for a young Dragonfly there since all the water was outside.:(
So the Cochranes rescued little Hozelock carefully with the pond net - and looking around from the pondside, he fluttered his wings, stretched out a smile, and buzzed off happily into the distance!;)
Nice shots Catherine, think it's a Female Blue Emperor.:)
Yes. Female Emperor. The male is Blue. Reportedly The largest of UK's dragonflies
. Nice shots :)
I wondered if that was an ovipositor there, Rolf, but am not really up with the reproductive bits of Dragonflies - so I left it open ;)
After all if it were a male, he would be offended to be labelled as a female!:eek:
Fantastic shots, there.
Thanks, Louise!
I'll tell Glen you said that. (He was wielding the camera as I was manoeuvering the pond net!:))
