User's notes
While I was photographing near a pond a Black-faced Percher landed on a reed in front of me. Given the colour of this dragonfly I understand that it was most likely a female. It stayed perched on the reed while I was photographing but once I stood up, I guess my movement spooked it because it flew off.
