Brown Hawker

[riggy]

Hello

I think this is a brown hawker, looked more brown in real life when flying was gliding around edge of lake at Clumber Park turning and patrolling back over the same area several time, spent a lot of time gliding.



Can someone please confirm or correct my ID.

Cheers

Paul

You are correct, it is a male Brown Hawker, the brown tinged wings are usually an easy feature to see in flight (if you look closely you can see the blue spots on the side of the abdomen that confirm it is a male).
