Draggin' fly


Nikon Coolpix 880
Having dibbled at Maxey/Etton pits on Saturday morning (11.6.05), I drove up to Deeping Lakes LWT. Here my life became destabilised by news of an Alpine Swift not too far away (in Oundle). But it couldn't stop me noticing this bunch of ants trying to drag away what appears to be the abdomen of a dragonfly...
("Can I click it?" Yes you can!)

ps There was no further news of the Alpine Swift...

Hi Mikey, the abdomen is a young Black-tailed Skimmer. Steve
