Scarce Blue-tailed Damselfly at Baglan Industrial Estate

male Scarce Blue-tailed Damselfly
Today, at the old Panasonic site (SS749915), there were very good numbers of Scarce Blue-tailed Damselfly on the wing. Mostly males but also some tandem pairs. There was also a significant emergence of Common Darters. Other species were less common but this site has a lot of potential!

Scarce Blue-tailed Damselfly(50+), Blue-tailed Damselfly(9), Azure Damselfly(1), Four-spotted Chaser(2), Broad-bodied Chaser(1), Emperor Dragonfly(1) and Common Darter(50+)
