Imago ♂ Ellevehøjvej. A pleasant surprise to have this male perching right in front of me. Normally I only seem them flying or taking flight from a good distance. |

Imago ♂ The well-marked black markings on the abdomen should make this a male. |

Imago ♂ Fasanskoven. Mature male with the strong blue color on the abdomen. Even when perched the characteristic upward curve at the base of the abdomen is obvious. |

Imago ♂ Fasanskoven. Another male than 510, but in the same spot. Unusual to me to find two individuals of this species perched for a longer time. But conditions were favorable in a protected clearing with the hot sun baking on an otherwise windy day. |

Imago ♂ Granathøj. Both a male and a female were present showing only slight interest in each other. And no bother to the affinis [Sydlig Mosaikguldsmed] males either. |

Exuvia Store regnvandsbassin. Saw 10 similar exuvias in the two basins, but no imagos around, why they must go far to seek better foraging grounds. The same was the case on Amager Fælled a few days later. Here they normally fly along the DLK, but maybe the steady eastern wind has made it less favorable to forage in these parts. Or it might also be that I haven't been aware of the exuvias in earlier years and the vanishing-behavior is as it has always been. Length: 50 mm. |

Imago ♀ Den tørre eng over krebseklo-vandhullet. Some females are strongly colored and can be difficult to separate in flight, why I chased this one until it perched. The brownish cast to the dark parts on top of the abdomen is good for the female as is of course the shape of the appendages. |
