Canada Darner

Canada Darner Aeshna canadensis

The darners are trickier than they should be and I may well have identified at least one of the individuals here wrongly, I need to make sure that when one finally lands I get shots from all angles!

The first image is of a younger insect (teneral), the glassy look to the wings and not quite finished look gives the game away.

Flies June to October.
