Got these 3 out of the ponds at Wat tyler CP in Essex. Any help/confirmations on IDs?
4 spot Chaser? - based it not being as hairy as what I have previously IDed as broad bodied (also present at site) 
Black tailed skimmer? - based on its more elongate shape than the chasers 
Migrant? Hawker - based on the epiproct shape  |

I don't have the knowledge to help confirm ID but noticing your avatar I thought you might enjoy this snap I took in August:   |

Hopefully no-one is offended - It's all part of the circle and cycle of life. I was rather pleased to have got the shot. I only use a compact digital pocket camera nowadays.
@Ukwildlifeo:
Were those mini-beasts in the original post removed from their environment for photography? |
