Kibblesworth

Dragonfly hunting last Friday at Kibblesworth. Loads of Four-spotted Chaser patrolling their territory and then perching up to have a look round. I did get a very brief glimpse of what could have been Black-tailed Skimmer but it was so quick I cannot be certain. Azure, Blue and Common Damselflies were out in numbers but I saw very few Butterflies. Once again if any of the identification is wrong I'm sorry.
