Common darter

This common darter (Sympetrum striolatum) had been bugging me all morning. I was working from home and from the corner of my eyes I could see him (it's male) catching mosquitos and other small insects and constantly returning to my outdoor table. When I went outside during a break to take some photo's of him a wasp kept bugging him so he flew away, only to return after a few minutes. I really like this species as the little dots are like little specks of gold leaf.
