Simon, check the legs. White/yellow stripe is Sympetrum striolatum - common darter, albeit an elderly one!

Carl, You are a fountain of knowledge! Much appreciated and learned again today Razz

Yes. I agree with Carl.Common Darter. Ruddy has all black legs. Excellent shot though Very Happy Well done

I disagree, I think it's a Ruddy Darter as they rest with wings depressed as the photo shows. Cracking shot and detail. Very Happy

OB, the other distinguishing features for sanguineum are red face on males and no yellow on thorax - this is definitely a striolatum. But yeah, crackin' shot!

Your Ruddy right it's not.
