The Yellow-Winged Darter

The Yellow-Winged Darter is a small dragonfly. It's essentially an Eastern European species which occasionally spreads as far West as Iberia. Our photographs of the species were made in the Netherlands and, more recently, in Finland. Sympetrum flaveolum is an easily recognisable species; besides the male's orange (rather than red) colour, the most distinguishing feature is really the huge orange-yellow patch at the base of the hind wing.
