I went out last sunday expecting to find very little. However i was very surprised to find a load of darters. There were at least 20 of them perching on this fence at various places so i made the mot of them. Enjoy.

I wasnt happy with the first image so went back and re-stacked the shot and it turned out much better.

Beautiful face that chap has.

You're right but it's a female. :) A male darter that mature would be red.
Great shot.

nice one, sometimes reversing the order of the images to stack helps.
