Blue-eyed Hawker (Aeshna affinis ) Sydlig Mosaikguldsmed (dk) Esna Zafiro (es) Klarblå Mosaikslända (se) 2024-07-07 Kalvebod Fælled, Denmark Imago. ♀. Bagstien, Pinseskoven. On July 1 I had two suspected females at this spot. They were flying around, but impossible to capture on photo, and finally disappeared. Today I spotted one again: smallish hawker with brown body and greenish toward the front part as seen in photo 1, and moving erratically and fast around about 4-5 meters above the ground. And then luckily it decided to perch, and luckily right in front of me - every time it flew with trees in the background I tended to loose sight of it. My eyes or just plain difficult in general. For the record I also had a suspected male in the same spot, brightly blue and smallish, but only seen briefly, and not again the following days. The wing marks are brown why I assume it to be a mature female. It perched vertically at first but then twisted the angle as seen in the last photos. Three meters above the ground. |
