Called in at Llanerch this afternoon - nice and sunny but the breeze meant that nothing was stationary for long. The only dragonfly seen was a Common Darter sunning itself on one of the handrails but lots of damselflies, many flying in tandem.
Several Common Blue and lots of Blue-tailed Damselflies around the pond margins and sitting on the lily pads. Also saw Red-eyed Damselflies in tandem - never seen these before! As I was returning to the car, there was one of the colour variants of Blue-tailed ( I think) sitting on the path - quite oblivious to me and others passing by.

Hi Howard
Was this Llanech wood and the Two pools?
I always get some good sightings there.
Yes the Damselfly on the floor is a Female Blue-tailed.(form infuscans)
Thanks Mike.
Yes, we often call in there - parking at the Vineyard - and stroll around the woodland walks.
