On Thursday the first Large Red Damselfly of the season was seen. This is the first species to appear annually but the 10th of April is defintely an early date. Howard Statham caught this one sunning itself on some ancient blackberries in the woodland and it or another was seen here on Friday.
It will not be too long before the air is full of hungry odenata species chasing down other winged insect prey...
Bring it on....
