Sometimes it gets just too hot! This Ruddy Darter is pointing its abdomen towards the sun to minimise the surface area exposed. You can see how effective this is from the tiny shadow it casts. nr Severn Beach, South Gloucestershire (19.07.26) #ukdragonflies #southglosdragonflies #ukwildlife #odonata

The female Azure damselfly appears in two colour forms. Most commonly, a dark abdomen, but there is a variegated form with blue areas on top of the abdomen. This one seen near Severn Beach yesterday (03.05.26). #southglosdragonflies #odonata #dragonfly #ukwildlife @britishdragonflies.bsky.social
