User's notes

There were possibly two Tau Emerald dragonflies shooting around the dam. They were doing circuits around the southern end of the dam, often hovering in the same or similar locations in between short legs around the dam. I thought that I saw one of them flying with its tail bent down but It went past quickly so I was unable to take a photograph.
