Dragonfly Pools at Their Best

Yet another hot still afternoon so off to the Dragonfly pools at Burwash. Plenty of Emperors, Black-tailed Skimmers and Four-Spot Chasers on the move and a single Banded Demoiselle (not photographed). The female Emperor had a hard time egg-laying as she was constantly bombarded by Black Tail Skimmers - no wonder their wings have so many chunks missing. I was shooting at 1/1600 or 1/2000 (1000 iso). The Buzzards were also active plus a nosey Sparrowhawk.
