This very smart species was photographed by me on 31 Jul 2011 at Kresna Gorge, Bulgaria. Unfortunately I only managed to get this single image before it flew off, so I have no further shots nor the specimen. It looks distinctive however so I am hopeful that someone might be able to suggest an identification. Very many thanks Alan Alan Outen attached the following image:  [73.18Kb] |
