Stourhead, Sparkling with Dragonflies

Stourhead’s cross, bridge, lake, and temple
Cardinal Beetle
Hornet-like Female Broad-Bodied Chaser in oviposition flight (is she a Batesian mimic? – Looks like it, specially when she dashes about, wasplike)
Jenny drawing rhododendron flower, with buttercups and mallards
Male Broad-Bodied Chaser perched among Speedwells (this was the only moment they weren’t dashing across the lake, fighting, or trying to grab the females)
Coot parents and Cootlings
Redwood with Red and Yellow Rhododendrons
