It is pretty weird.
All those blonde hairs and the time of year suggest B. lanigerus, however, the pterostigma seems to be too black ?

Ok, thanks Theo !! :)
I'll try to look later for my pictures to see if all of those have the same look and pterostigma ... ?
I ad the only other view I have already in my computer, but I doubt it gives more informations ...

It is lanigerus.
In the left one, you can see the stigma is dark but not black. Apparently the blackness are due to the high contrast.
