Migrant Hawker (Aeshna mixta) ♀ ©

            Female Migrant Hawker Dragonfly (Aeshna mixta). A small Hawker, not aggressive towards other individuals and occasionally seen in large feeding swarms. It flies late into the autumn and is likely to be the only Hawker found in November. The costa is brown and there is a "golf-tee" shaped, yellow mark on S2. Male looks quite dark with blue, paired spots along the abdomen. The pale yellow ante-humerals are indistinct and short and eyes are blue.
Female brown with similar markings to the male but the spots are smaller and often yellow, occasionally blue. The ante-humerals are insignificant or absent and eyes are brownish.. Photo by Nick Dobbs, Bere Marsh Farm, Dorset 13-09-2025
