Two's Company....


I've attached quite an interesting picture of multiple Southern Hawker exuvia. It is not uncommon to see one exuvia clinging to the back of another, I guess because of the limited pond foliage, larvae invariably choose to climb up the same stem occasionally. However, I have never before seen three exuvia together like this! I counted 28 Southern Hawker exuvia on Saturday 4th, so this is obviously the most numerous dragonfly species living in the pond at present.
