$Tot: 45-50mm, Ab 30-37mm, Hw 33-38mm.\nIdentification:\nVery similar to O. cancellatum, with which it is found especially in the south-east, and as far west as France. However, it is sleeker, paler and more contrasting. Named for the contrasting white appendages of both sexes.\nBehavior:\nLike O. cancellatum, male often sits on open ground near the water, making very fast, low flights over the water.\nOccurrence:\nDistribution is patchy, but the species is generally not uncommon, stretching to China and Japan.\nHabitat: Open Ponds and Lakes.\nFlight Season: From the end of May to mid-September.\n\nThis nice Skimmer is photographed during a Vacation in France in May 1990.

$Tot 35-40mm, Ab 26-33mm, Hw 20-25mm.\nOften occurs with L. sponsa, with which is easily confused. Typically occurs in lower numbers, but can be more abundant in sites that are only seasonally wet.\nOccurrence:\nRange similar to L. sponsa, but relatively more common southward Europe and typically more localized and less numerous than that species in most of its northern range. Our only Lestes that also occurs in North America.\nHabitat:\nA wide variety of still waters, which typically dry out in the course of summer or have shallow borders providing warm micro-habitats for the larvae. Sites usually have dense growths of rushes or sedges, e.g. dune lakes, reedy shallows, small meadow ponds or edges of bogs.\nFlight Season:\nThe earliest Lestes in most areas, emerging from late May in northern Europe, most abundant in July and August, with the last record in October.\n\nThis is a less common Lestes species, than L sponsa in the Netherlands.$

A grey heron (Ardea cinerea) and a male mute swan (Cygnus olor) with cygnets in the nest are uneasy partners on a small pond. Here they come face to face but studiously ignore each other. It seems that the swan respects the powerful beak of the heron, which could easily pick up and swallow one of the cygnets.
