Pronto al decollo con l'addome sollevato quasi verticalmente, il maschio posato segnala alla femmina in volo che quel posatoio è occupato. #Wild #Volo #Fly #Movimento #InsettiInVolo

Splendid image - and I really like that you have given us a glimpse of another flying past in the background!

Thank you Ann, these skilled fliers are very attentive to the presence of their fellows :-)

Here I understand your comment under my photo! You are passionate about these beautiful and interesting insects!
Beautiful this shot and very interesting description... so, let's see if I understand, when they are laid and open and close the wings at certain intervals, signal that the place is occupied? Thank you

They stop on a perch until they see a fly fly within a metre or so, then take off, catch it and return to the perch. If another individual poses too close or flies over a laid dragonfly, it signals its presence with the posture of this photo and rises if necessary to drive away the intruder. :-)

Perfect, thanks for the interesting explanation!!! Then mine, which occasionally opened its wings as I took in my photo, probably did not do it to signal its presence but for other reasons (unknown to me). Thank you again!

Thank you Massimo, they are smart and lively insects. Depending on the time they eat or mate. If it's too hot they gather in the cool, where the shade is thicker, dozens in a square meter. :-)

Great image, I really appreciate the naturalist spirit that motivates your shots, clearly influenced by the subjects that you took back long ago, document nature and its moments regardless of the gender of belonging of the subjects, the photo of an insect ondi a bird are no different for this purpose.

Thank you Manlio. Observing and knowing has always been instinctive for me.
Thanks Maurizio. I'm going back to first love. Insects as a child attracted me more than anything else :-)
