They are my favourite insects. I just wish they were more common in the UK, I only see one every few years.

Thanks given the 10 minutes I had before our tour moved on ,I found them difficult to shoot due to the fast movement bright background lighting
 
Excellent captures… I’ve only ever seen one here..
 
Nice set. Not the easiest things to get a shot of.
