Thank you to all who take the time to Comment/fav etc..Always appreciated.
The vagrant darter (Sympetrum vulgatum) is a European dragonfly. The species takes its English name from its habit of occasionally appearing as a rare vagrant north of its normal range. However, it is likely to be under-recorded because it is very similar to the common darter (S. striolatum).

The common darter is a small, narrow-bodied dragonfly which is on the wing from the end of June right through to October, or even November in a warm autumn. This is a very common dragonfly, breeding in all sorts of waterbodies from ponds and ditches to rivers and lakes. As their name suggests, common darters dart forward suddenly from a hovering position to catch their insect-prey. They then take their catch to a favoured perch to eat it.
Male common darters are bright red while the females and immature adults are golden-brown. There are several similar-looking red darters which can be very difficult to tell apart.

Dragonflies are predatory insects from the order Odonata and characterized by large eyes, transparent wings and most colorful patches in body.
Red veined darter is another dragonfly widespread and common species in much of the Indian Subcontinent.
A male of the species I found roosting early last Saturday morning amongst tall vegetation next to a moorland pool.

Black Darter (Sympetrum danae)
Appearance: Colored male black Darter live up to their name with their mainly black colored body. The female is yellow with a distinct black marking across the abdomen which is also unique among heather dragonflies. For both sexes, the species has 3 yellow dots in black on the side of the chest piece that distinguish them from other heather dragonflies. When I see the species I am always amazed at how small they actually are. Appearance: The species can fly locally in huge numbers. They are most common in fens, but are also found in pioneer pools or low moor areas. For example, the species occurs en masse in some places in the weather ribs.
Flight time: June to October.

The Red Dragonfly, also known as Red-Veined Darter or Nomad is technically known as Sympetrum Fonscolombii, and belongs to the Sympetrum genus. It is widespread in the southern parts of Europe, and since 1990s, it has also become a common species in the northwestern part of Europe including Ireland and Britain.
The Japanese consider red dragonflies to be “very sacred,” offering a symbol of courage, strength and happiness. American Indians believe red dragonflies can “bring a time of rejuvenation after a long period of trials and hardship.”

One of the most abundant European dragonflies, the male common darter is typically a vivid red colour and the female turns from a yellow colour to a deep chocolate brown. The common darter can be found in a wide variety of wetland habitats, but generally prefer to breed on still waters such as ponds and lakes. Info: The Wildlife Trusts.
