Discovering the Common Darter at Warnham Local Nature Reserve

On 10th August 2025, I spent a delightful morning at Warnham Local Nature Reserve, capturing some stunning moments of a Common Darter dragonfly. These incredible insects never fail to amaze me—their vibrant colours and delicate, intricate wings make them a joy to photograph up close.

Photographing dragonflies like the Common Darter requires patience and a keen eye for detail. Each shot reveals a little more of their beauty, from the shimmering patterns on their wings to the striking hues of their bodies. It’s moments like these that remind me why I love wildlife photography so much.
