Forest Farm 18.05.2020

Just a quick walk around Forest Farm before shopping, resulted in alot of Large Reds and Azure Damselflies along the canal.

10.05.2020, Hi all, long time no Blog

Hi all, took a trip down to the local river on the 6th May. River Taff by the Water treatment plant near Cilfynydd. I found a couple of Damsels on the bankside vegetation, Two Large Red Damsels and Three Beautiful Demoiselles.

Lots of dragons flying over the dragonfly pond .... but all too far away to see.
Fortunately the damsels were numerous and busy alongside the parched paths. Saw Azure, Common Blue, Blue-tailed and Large Red Damselflies. Quite a lot in tandem.

Llanerch Wood 23/05/2018

I did not see any Dragons but there was alot of Damsels about, Azures, Blue-tailed and a large amount of Red-eyed Damsels. I counted 46 over the Five rafts of lily pads with quite a few of them in tandem.

Pysgodlyn Mawr 23/05/2018

Spent a few hours at the pool today and there was alot on the wing, one Hairy Dragonfly, three Four-spotted Chasers and at least four Downy Emerald males, none of which settled for a photo. As for Damsels there were alot of Large Reds, Azures, Blue-tailed and Red-eyed with some in tandem and ovipositing.

I then moved on to Llanerch Wood.

Penallta Park 18/05/2018

Spent a few hours at the lower ponds at Penallta Park which are a number of small ponds and two fishing lakes. At one of the small ponds I did see one Dragonfly but it flew over a hedge before I had a chance to identify it, but there was a number of Large Red and Common Blue Damsels present with some of the Reds in tandem.

At the fishing ponds I did not see any Dragonflies only Damsels with the majority of them being Azures and only a few Large Reds, again some of the reds were in tandem.
