Broad-bodied Chaser - Darley Dale

I record most Broad-bodied Chasers at my small garden pond and this female is no exception spending most of the afternoon on the tip of a garden cane. I also had a male fly over the garden this morning, they seem to favour small pools over some of the larger ponds which attract other dragonfly.

I've been away for a couple of days but received the photo below of Northern Eggar from Simon Roddis and this shot of a female Broad-bodied Chaser egg laying in Wragg's Quarry from Ken. It looks like there is an egg between the Chaser and the water.

Three males and a female on the small dew pond, this male attracted the attention of a Large Red Damselfly.
