A rare dragonfly caused much excitement when it was rescued from the water of a nature reserve.

The club-tailed dragonfly was saved by wetland boat safari guide Joel Coram at WWT Arundel Wetland Centre on Sunday.

Club-tailed dragonflies are classified as nationally notable as they only breed on five UK rivers - the Arun, Thames, Wey, Dee and Severn.

The insects are only seen at Arundel Wetland Centre every few years and they are listed in the Sussex Rare Species Inventory.
