The Eyes, Pt. 7 - Hidden - _TNY_6113

Just look at the beautiful eyes on this female common hawker/sedge darner (Aeshna juncea). If you're watching this on a computer, tap "L" and then "Z" on your keyboard to see the individual facets of the eyes.

 

Here she is in the process of depositing her eggs in the garden pond and after a couple of tries I got close enough to snap some shots.

 

At first I thought this particular shot wasn't a good look, but now I actually really like the look of her through the low grass at the edge of the pond like this.
