Just after Euthanasia

Home is where you hang your dart board. It has been years, over 8, since I have had this hanging. It is in the more finished side of the basement of our new house.

This Australasian Darter (Anhinga novaehollandiae) is about to take off as I am getting closer.

A darter dragonfly. Taken at Foulshaw Moss, Cumbria.

This section is about 1-2 kms upstream from the start of the Dart/Rees walking track.

The colour of the Dart River was quite muddy due to around 300mm of rain falling a couple of days previously. Normally the colour of the Dart River is a beautiful bluey green.

Darter dragonfly

Percina shumardi, Guadalupe River, Texas. The River darters found in this drainage are a disjunct population representing the far western part of their range.

This is either a female or juvenile Darter (Anhinga melanogaster), also known as "snake birds" with their serpentine neck. They use their pointed bill to spear fish along rivers and around wetlands.

Not long after having my best view of a local Hare yet as it ran from the bushes in front of me to an area of trees a few hundred away, I came across a couple of Ruddy Darters. They were the first ones I'd seen this year and although they were both quite wary, I still managed to get close-ups of this one as it sat on a blade of long grass just inches away from my camera lense.

Great to see them again and I'm sure that there will be many more emerging in the next few weeks :-)

Australian Darter :: Anhinga melanogaster novaehollandiae

This Common Darter was resting still on the top of a weed just a couple of metres from me so that I could take some shots of it. Without any expectation to see a dragonfly when I was chasing the butterflies in a field far away from water yesterday.
