Thanks some TN members I can correct this note.

Ruddy Darter (Sympetrum sanguineum) - female
Libellulidae

Length 35mm

Both sexes and all ages similar in size and colour to common darter. Male, however, is easily recognised by marked constriction towards front of abdomen. Favours ponds, marshes and lakes. Frequently perches with wings depressed slightly. Flies July and August.

Hi again, Jan:
This time I think it's Sympetrum sanguineum, the Ruddy Darter. The "glassy" wings again suggest a teneral insect.
Regards, Nigel.

Very good poto of an Odonata!
Very good details and "golden" colour"
Very good POV and DOF!
Very good BG too!
Keep on going and TFS!

Another superb capture from a different perspecive.
Great DOF and colours.
