Although Willington has been flooded for months I went looking for hairy dragonflies none seen by me but a possible sighting from the hide by 2 other guys. I did see a marsh harrier, a bittern and my first damselfies for 2024 plus a few other birds.

Many thanks to you ALL for the views, faves and comments you make on my shots it is very appreciated

Delighted to see my first Orange-tip male Butterfly in my gdn this morning in spite of a cool wind. the underside shot was taken with a lot of zoom as it was still very mobile. Still not seeing as many butterflies as usual by this time of year & not seen any Small Tortoiseshell's, most unusual but those are reported as declining species
