After the rain this morning, the weather turned out not too bad! So I head for Banks pond in the hope of some dragonfly action. Two Emperor males, that clashed next to where I was put on a canny show, sadly not for the camera. So again, the damselflies saved the day. Lots of Common Blue, Blue-tailed and Emerald.
Common Blue Damselfly
Emerald Damselfly
I left here and went to Bellasis Bridge, where the Banded Demoiselle where on show, but again not for the camera, and still no Quail up the road. On the way back I called into East Cramlington Nature Reserve, where there where Azure, Common Blue, Large Red and Emerald Damselfly. I took no pictures at all, in fact I just got back to the car before a thunderstorm came through.
