Dragonflies and flowers

Post by lindsay »

13 species of dragon and damselflies have been spotted around the reserve so far this year. White letter hairstreak butterflies starting to emerge in Boilton wood. Bee orchids by the traffic lights as you turn into the reserve, none yet spotted on the reserve itself yet this year but as I was searching for them today I found a single plant of Blue Eyed Grass. This has been reported a couple of times in recent years but has never been seen and GPS recorded by staff until today. It was also in a different area to the previous reports.
