Field Notes

Description:

Believe it or not, this guy was still able to fly! <br>
These sit on pathways sunning themselves but fly up as people approach then settle behind them. When you stand still they will fly very close to you a few times before settling nearby.

Habitat:

Pathway near lakes in mixed woodland.
