Cópula de Orthetrum trinacria / Coupling of Orthetrum trinacria

Esta cópula de Orthetrum trinacria ha sido tomada en el paraje Clot de Galvany. Ha sido de lo poco decente que hemos podido hacer hoy, a pesar de que habían numerosos individuos de diferentes especies.

El problema ha sido que por cada individuo habían cientos de mosquitos y resulta muy incómodo hacer fotografías así. Daba lo mismo que llevaras un potente repelente, no parecía importunarles.

Es una pena que el ala tape la cabeza del macho y no se aprecie bien ese maravilloso ojo que tiene.

This copulation of Orthetrum trinacria has been taken in the Clot de Galvany area. It has been one of the few decent ones we have been able to do today, even though there were numerous individuals of different species.

The problem has been that for each individual there were hundreds of mosquitoes and it is very uncomfortable to take pictures like that. It didn't matter if you had a powerful repellent, it didn't seem to bother them.

It is a pity that the wing covers the male's head and that wonderful eye he has is not well appreciated.
