Dragons! #dragonfly #odonata

Not a moth post.
An odonata post.

Lots of dragonflies circling our coastal mid-terrace Victorian garden with functional wildlife pond and nature friendly accessories ... for the discerning fauna out there. No riff-raff.

The 'Scarce Blue-tailed Damselfly' (Ischnura pumilio) lives up to its name.
This #damselfly has not been recorded in #Brighton before!
Now @[email protected] adds a *New Record*, which has been confirmed.

Golden-ringed Dragonfly. Not (quite) the UK's largest #dragonfly species but undoubtedly our most spectacular. This one was taking a break from patrolling Crockford Stream in the #NewForest yesterday. #Hampshire #invertebrates #UKWildlife #photography #odonata
