It was just one of those Saturday afternoons; sunny after some heavy rainfall and nothing else to do than to walk in the woods. And so I did, following my standard route to Ruislip Lido and back home. But it was still worthwhile… as always.
First I spotted Mr. Broad-bodied Chaser (Libellula Depressais) as well as Mrs. BBC. They look a little bit different, but are both beautiful. It was strange that they did not meet up because we need a next generation after all.
There were several different Dragonflies and damselflies to be seen. The Red-eyed Damselflies (Erythromma najas) had met up and were having the time of their life in the sun, which means there will be more of these beautiful insects soon.
But the biggest surprise this afternoon was the Buzzard (Buteo Buteo) flying over the water. It was chased by some ugly black birds and it flew away after some minutes. Therefore the pictures are not particularly sharp. I am just happy to have taken them in time.
