Happy #TrithemisThursday! Yes, totally made that up. Anyway, here's a male Indigo Dropwing (Trithemis festiva) in the 'obelisk' pose.
They don't do this to look cool, they do it to become cool(er) - by minimising the % of their body being hit by overhead sun during the hottest parts of the day.

Lots of great butterflies today here in Andalusia, but the African pioneer dragonflies threatened to steal the show - Orange-winged & Violet Dropwing, Long Skimmer, and Northern Banded Groundling all putting in great appearances for us all.
