“Large dragonfly in the woods”
When I was walking in the woods, a dragonfly appeared from the bush. It is rare to meet a dragonfly in a dark place where tree grow. The dragonfly perched on a branch as if hanging. It was Katori-yamma. They are active in the evening and stay still in the woods during the day. Several other Katori-yamma were quietly moving around. [JULY 2021]
Gynacantha japonica
カトリヤンマは夕方になると頻繁に活動するトンボで、日中は林内で静かにしています。林内では枝から枝へ移動し、ぶら下がるようにしてとまります。
