An excellent couple of days looking for Dragonflies.. Friday Lunchtime in Rownham's Wood, where a new pool has been dug: 1 Beautiful Demoiselle, a Brown Hawker briefly swooped in from the canopy, several Common Darter, a Golden-ringed Dragonfly, and a Hawker that evaded identification (probably a Migrant Hawker).
Saturday at Shatterford was superb with my first Small Red Damsel, and my first Black Darter.
Also present were Emerald Damselfly, which for some reason I'm finding impossible to photograph. Common Darter, Emperor, many Keeled Skimmers, Azure Blue Damselfly, and Blue-tailed Damselfly.

Also Testwood lakes had a very close Southern Hawker, Black-tailed Skimmers and more Common Darter.
