Better than Fishing, Pt. 2 - _TNY_7843

So I went on a small fishing trip with the family to a group of small tarns known as Rotensjöarna (the Roten lakes) with several species of game fish like charr and brown trout. Personally I of course had no ambition to do any fishing (didn't even purchase a fishing permit) but brought the camera instead.

 

The day was very warm so the fish weren't really biting and the various dragonflies and damsels had no problems operating at full speed, meaning not many were sitting still.

 

This particular one did so however. It's a male common bluet (Enallagma cyathigerum) which allowed me the joy of snapping a couple of shots befor taking off in search of a good-looking date.
