Nice shots John. All shots seem to of the same female, although the abdomen seems considerably shorter in the the second image.

In the first shot, the wings are fluttering and appear to be a lot shorter than they really are. When completely at rest the wings virtually cover the whole of the abdomen. The shots were taken at intervals, over a 60 min period and are almost certainly the same specimen.
