Dragonfly and darter numbers have been increasing around the garden this
week.
Wednesday a southern hawker settled briefly near the pond.
Common
darters were also present at the pond, both singularly and paired couples.
Thursday morning over at Wilstone Reservoir
good numbers of the smaller migrant hawker and a few ruddy darters were to be found.
Found a coupled pair of migrant hawkers just
outside the hide.
A fishing kingfisher delghted watches in the hide as it hunted from a nearby perch, as another flashed close by.
Two hobbies were hawking dragonflies over head as two green sandpipers fed in the shallows in front of the hide.
Early Friday morning at home two greenfinches on the feeders with a
juvenile nearby.
A single chiffchaff searching through the fennel for
insects close to the back door. Stewart.
