I was busy cleaning out weed from my Pond when I spotted this on a fern. Nearly fell into my Pond taking this picture. I didn't know what it was but think its a Migrant Hawker after looking up my Wildlife Book. Correct me if I am wrong.

Dragon, not damsel. Dragons rest with the wings outstretched; damsels are altogether more delicate insects which fold theirs together. It's an Aeshna, probably caerulea. It likes stagnant, acid water, and there's plenty of that in Berwickshire.
