On the wing at Whixall..

Good to hear news from Whixall Moss where Barrie Smith saw Four-spotted Chaser Libellula quadrimaculata, Large Red Damselfly Pyrrhosoma nymphula and White-faced Darter Leucorrhinia dubia all this morning.


 
 
Barrie's photos below show the mature male White-faced Darter with striking red colouration....
 
 
...and a teneral male with a slightly waisted abdomen and yellow colouration.
