At P.C.D. there was only One to be found again just emerged that morning.
We could do with a little bit of rain now as the ponds were quite low.

Parc Penallta & Parc Cwm Darran 23/04/2017
Although a little windy it seemed a bit warmer in the morning enough to bring out a few Large Red Damsels at the horse-shoe ponds Penallta, four in total three of which must have just emerged judging by their colour and still near their casts.

Old canal - Forest Farm
Several female Large Red Damselfly on the edge of the old canal yesterday, where the lily pads are just appearing. Saw one that had obviously had problems emerging - with tangled wings and a wonky abdomen. No males seen.

Lavernock NR 09/04/2017
Yes Howard I concur the Dragons are making a comeback, found today at the small pond at Lavernock NR a new emergence of Large Reds. About a dozen or more flew up from the reeds and a few more which had just emerged still drying off on the reeds.
Lets hope a good sign of things to come.

Damsels are back ...
Look what turned up in the garden this afternoon - unless I'm mistaken, a stunning female Large Red Damselfly. I am a suitably happy 'grumpy old man'.
