Norfolk Hawker Dragonfly - Aeshna isoceles

Sometimes known as the Green-Eyed-Hawker. Here in the UK this species is legally protected under the Wildlife Country Act. At one time this species was restricted to the Broadlands of Norfolk and north east Suffolk but has now spread slowly over time and can now be found in such places such as Cambridge, Kent, Hertfordshire, Devon, Dorset, London and as far as Lancashire and Yorkshire. Can be seen on the wing from May to August in and around well vegetated lakes, ponds, ditches and marshes.
