2022-07-09 Kongelunden, Danmark Imago. Han. The large clearing in SV near the western edge. Suddenly flew in and sat for a few minutes before it took direct flight toward the top of the trees. Despite the strong wind. |

2022-07-11 Nyttehaver Ugandavej (tårnby), Danmark Imago. Poor smartphone photos but justified by the observation being rather unusual without oak trees nearby, as far as I know. The black-and-white double-streak underneath is diagnostic, however, I'm not sure about the sex since the blurred-out upperside is of too poor quality to say for sure. But overall, I would guess it is a female. |
