Another week in a local ditch for our trail cameras. Footage from 2 different cameras one mine and the other my brothers they show one of the Roe Deer with her two fawns who regularly use the ditch as a path and a place to eat the new growth on the bushes and brambles. (note mum is the deer I filmed before with the damaged ear).
Coming back we spotted a few dragonflies on the wing. One of them caught a bumble bee on a thistle and ate it – something I had not seen before.
Golden-ringed Dragonfly. with Red tailed Bumblebee.









Great dragonfly but poor wee bee!
Wonderful video. I like how the little ones are staying close to her and following her. And nice wee bit at the end too 😀

Nice video of the deer; mama is so tender and careful with her twin fawns.
The dragonfly and bee photos are amazing. I had no idea dragonflies would eat bees!

I was the same thought they would eat smaller insects. Always something to learn in nature.
