Hi Helen - the first two photos are of Tau Emeralds, but the third is of a pair of Blue Skimmers and will need to be separated out as a different record.

Thanks Harvey - will do. I thought they looked different but they were directly beneath the first pair when they flew off so I thought it must have been the same pair!
