Hehehe Larry, I think you were answering a different spotting and were just on the wrong page. Wonder if I didn't have an owl fly spotting somewhere around that time!
Without a doubt…I don't know what I was thinking!
thanks Larry, but I think Kate has nailed it! Looks identical to the link she supplied.
Most likely the Eastern Blacktail (Nesciothemis farinosa) http://www.warwicktarboton.co.za/dfpgs/116farinosa.html
