Absolutely stunning series of images Nikola - do you have any more pics of this amazing drama?

Unfortunately this is not a species we get in Britain

It's interesting how the markings on the upper and lower abdomen blend with the wing colour and pattern.

Thanks Bruce.

I think so, but must search a little through my archives.

Owwww! Right between the eyes

That's gotta hurt

Great set of images there Nikola. You know that abdomen almost looks like a moths.
