Female Broad-bodied Chaser (DSLR)
Four-spotted Chaser (DSLR)
Early reward for digging out ten tonnes of earth to make a 'bigger' pond in our Peterborough garden (and filling it with water) came on Saturday morning (9.6.07). The sunny weather brought four species of dragonfly to investigate:
Blue-tailed Damselfly,
Azure Damselfly,
Four-spotted Chaser and
Broad-bodied Chaser (at least two females laying eggs!)
I'd never seen the Azure and Four-spot in the garden before (and the Broad-bodied only last week when I was digging the hole), and the garden drag list has now expanded to 11 species.
