| | | Lge flying insect from Greece?
I am wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction for this one? In flight it was the same size as a very large hawker dragonfly, the wings are about 2inches long each side. It flew a lot like a damselfly........
I don't know where to begin to ID it but was hoping someone may have more idea than me where to start looking. You cannot imagine some of my google searches  
Oh and I have more images if anyone needs a closer look!

Thanks very much for the quick response...I am now getting some slightly better results on google

Doh! Just seen the title. Greece. Makes sense now. Although there is a colony in Suffolk.
