Closer views of the three herons featured in the previous post. One was standing as if asleep, but occasionally moving its head as it checked nothing was happening. The one in the middle was preening energetically, and the third was half-hidden in the greenery.

This superb insect was resting on a bush by the side of the track at Northycote Farm back at the end of July.
I’ve just been reviewing my pictures, and realised I already posted several other pictures of this dragonfly, but for some reason, had missed out the most detailed one.
