Close-up sparse composition in selective focus of beautiful and colorful multi colored dragonfly insect, orange, yellow, and slightly green. This image has large copy space on right and a bright sunlight in background. One small animal resting on dried bamboo stick in summer. This picture was taken in Ain, Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes region in France. This species is smaller than the common Darter or Red-veined Darter. She is pale orange to the basal of the wings. The eyes are red bright brown above and yellow below.

A red-veined darter (Sympetrum fonscolombii) perched on a stem of feathery grass in strong, hot sunshine, ahead of a de-focused woodland background.

A brown and rather plain hawker, with largely clear wings and conspicuous green eyes. The yellow triangle on S2 is diagnostic, as are the colour and shape of the hind wing base. Males patrol marshy ditches, reedy lakesides and other lush, calm waters.
Field characters: Tot 62-66mm, Ab 47-54mm, Hw 39-45mm.
Habitat: Ditches, marshes, ponds and lakes with rich vegetation. Favours swamps of Water-soldier (Stratiotes aloides) in most of its northern range.
Flight Season: May to August in most of its range, most abundant in June; earlier than most Aeshnia.
Distribution: Widespread but very local in much of its range, especially in south-west, often numerous where present.

This is not a very common Species in the described Habitats in the Netherlands.

Blue Emperor is presently a common species, which is only absent from parts of the northern provinces of Groningen and Friesland. It is found at most larger bodies of standing water. Compared to the pre-1990 period, the species has increased strongly. So is with other dragonflies, Blue Emperor has benefit of the gradual warming in the last decades.
