Autumn but still some insects about

Despite the cold wind this Common Hawker (I think) Dragonfly was still out and about at midday and feeding okay as it was eating a fly.
At St Govan's a Clouded Yellow butterfly was a nice sight but it wouldn't pose for a photo.

  1. Migrant Hawker female I think Rich - notice the yellow golf-tee shape - and in my experience they are the only hawkers to hang on branches and allow photographs!

    PS We also had a Clouded Yellow ar Marloes Mere
