    Thank you.
    Have found the difference between the common and Ruddy Darters.
    The common Darter has a cream stripe down it's legs and on it's thorax the ruddy Darter has black legs

    The equipment I use is a Canon 30D with Sigma 50-500mm lens. I also have a garden hide from which I take most of my pictures.
