The Common Darter (Sympetrum striolatum) is a dragonfly of the family Libellulidae native to Eurasia. It is one of the most common dragonflies in Europe, occurring in a wide variety of water bodies, though with a preference for breeding in still water such as ponds and lakes. In the south of its range adults are on the wing all year round.

Notes:
It was sitting on a bench, so my boyfriend was able to take so many pictures of it.
I'm not sure if the species is right, so please feel free to correct me..
