Great shot of the Ruddy Darter, Shieldc! You captured him perfectly! Greetings, Anne

The Ruddy Darter rests more often than the larger dragonflies, so it is fairly easy to capture it. Thank you, Anne. Greetings, shieldc

brilliant picture, I love it, I have never seen one of these red dragonflies before. You have my vote.

Thank you for the vote, Andrew. This species is quite common here, and not so easy to scare of. Greetings, shieldc

I would say S. vulgatum or maybe S. striolatum. S. sanguineum has total black legs. This has light stripes along the legs. Greetings, Søren C
