Hi Harvey, note here that my photo-bombing friend makes another appearance. I don't think it is the same species as those it is photo-bombing, can it be identified at this stage though? Should I put a sighting for the nymph? Also, first photo looks like the dragonfly has caught a fly, would it catch and eat prey at this stage? Thanks :)
