Female - The brown Hawker - Aeshna grandis - Juffertje - Sudenkorento - Waterjuffer - Øyenstikker - Libélula - Libellule - Slenjur - Dragonfly - Drekafluga - Vogvængjur - Ránflugur - Vatnaskordýr. - The male and female are brown in colour with brown suffused wings. There is no mistaking this very striking species. The males have blue patches near to the base of the abdomen and the eyes have a blue suffusion. The female has all brown eyes and a thicker abdomen that tapers towards its tip.

Locally common and widespread. Adults can be seen between mid June and late September. The Brown Hawker is found on sheltered lowland lakes and fens. It can overlap with the more upland Common Hawker Aeshna juncea on cutover lowland bogs. The species shows some tendency to wander, but not as much as Aeshna juncea. This species is unlikely to be confused with any other due to its brown coloration and amber-tinted wings. See moore: http://www.habitas.org.uk/dragonflyir...

The brown hawker is a large hawker dragonfly which is on the wing from the end of June through to September. It is a common dragonfly of well-vegetated canals, marshes and reedbeds as well as lakes and gravel pits. It can be spotted patrolling a regular hunting territory which it will defend aggressively against intruders. It can be found some distance from its breeding grounds, hawking woodland rides late into the evening. Hawkers are the largest and fastest flying dragonflies; they catch their insect-prey mid-air and can hover or fly backwards. See more: http://www.wildlifetrusts.org/species...

The brown hawker is a distinctive species and is easily recognised, even in flight, by its brown body and bronze wings. At rest, blue spots on the second and third segments of the male's abdomen can be noticed; these are absent in female. See more: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_ha...

Flere av øyenstikkerne er store dyr, gode flygere og dyktige jegere som fanger byttet i luften. Etter at bytte er fanget lander øyestikkeren på en passelig plass, en trestamme eller noe lignende, for å spise. http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%98ye...
