Dragonflies at Cuerden

Post by Joyce Riley »

Taking advantage of what might be the last day of summer, I went to the Dragonfly Breeding Pond at the northern end of the park. 20+ Common Darters inc several pairs ovipositing, female Southern Hawker also ovipositing plus 1 Migrant Hawker and 1 Brown Hawker flying around.

Kem Mill end were 2+ Common Darters, 1 Brown Hawker and male Southern Hawker. Also Red Admiral and 2 Speckled Wood butterflies.
