Nice walk this week with Banded Demoiselle - always good to see - with over a dozen males and at least two females. Adding to the day was an Odonata tick for me; White-legged Damselfly. Rubbish photos which will end up in the bin, but it was good to find. Several males and a female.

Banded Demoiselle |
After lots of coastal sites recently, was good to see some different flora species - Dark Mullein, Dwarf Thistle and I love scabious, so seeing fields with lots of wild flower species including many scabious was a delight.
Birds took a bit of a back seat on this walk, although a young Robin was great to see and Treecreeper was found by the visitor centre, feeding on a tree trunk completely oblivious to the crowd gathering below.

Dark Mullein & insect (id required) |
A group of House Martins fed over the fields, chattering as they went, and there were a few Swallow higher up.
Several insect photographs will just be adding to my ever-expanding collection of "id required"s
