Bystock Dragonflies

Bystock Pool, Exmouth, Devon
Today’s visit was aimed at Dragonflies and Damselflies and it didn’t disappoint. The following species were noted. Southern Hawker, Golden-ringed Dragonfly, Common Darter, Four-spotted Chaser, Emperor Dragonfly, Keeled Skimmer, Blue-tailed Damselfly, Small Red Damselfly and Common Blue Damselfly. I did add another Butterfly to the site species and year list with a lovely Silver-spotted Blue. Site species is now up to 20. I also had 2 Green Hairstreak but the light for the photo was awful as the only angle I could get was looking into the sun. I also made a new friend in a Juvenile European Robin that followed me at close range around the main pool.
