Happy Friday!
This time last year, #NatureChampion for the Azure Hawker dragonfly, @EvelynTweedSNP, opened the @ScotlandBds conference! #ThrowbackThursday #DYK that Azure Hawker dragonflies are only found in Scotland within the UK? 📸 Daniele Muir
Be a voice for dragonflies! 🐉💚 Are you aged 16-25 and fascinated by insects? Apply for our Youth Panel to join the team and help us to inspire others to record, protect and create habitat for dragonflies 💦 Applications are open until 5th May 🌸: loom.ly/LDlmnUM
Wow! They're here! (In England).
Wow! They're here! (In England).
It won't be long (a few weeks I would think)! Let us know when you see your first Large Red Damsels! This one emerged from my water-plant storage container a few years ago. It measures 2mx1m so was quite a surprise. Anyone digging a pond in their garden just now? #TeamDragonfly
What a beautiful day we had at Tombane #Rewilding #Northwoods last week - they have dug 3 new Northern Damselfly ponds and have 2 more to go! We hope they will be colonised very soon - watch this space for training & volunteer days this summer 🐉🏴🐉#TeamDragonfly
It was great to be at #Dragonfly #Hotspot Gartcosh LNR recently to see how well N. Lanarkshire Council @nlcpeople are managing the ponds. This network of ponds & wetlands are at different stages of succession, ensuring a good home for lots of different #wildlife. #TeamDragonfly
Male Hairy Dragonfly (Brachytron pratense) from May 2023. Our first true Dragonfly to emerge in the UK. It won't be long until you see them and those eyes mesmerise you! @BDSdragonflies @ScotlandBds @Britnatureguide @NatureUK @BBCSpringwatch
A Common Hawker Dragonfly hovering in the Cairngorms In my latest Dragonfly Tour episode I go hunting for Northern Damselfly, Northern Emerald, Azure Hawker and White-faced Darter Dragonflies in the Scottish Highlands, watch it here: youtu.be/uuaiD3xZ2O8 @CNPnature
Amazingly early!
FANTASTIC! The historic moment the Wildlife Mgt and Muirburn bill was passed! Licensing scheme for grouse shooting, licensing scheme for muirburn, a licensing scheme for wildlife traps, a ban on snares and increased investigatory powers for the Scottish SPCA.
Another stunning insect that will be on the wing in a few weeks time. Broad-bodied chaser (Libellula depressa). These taken last year in East Lothian. #Odonata #Dragonflies @BDSdragonflies @ScotlandBds
It's another dreich day in Perthshire so here are some summery dragons to cheer us up.... There will be lots more to see at Saturday's online meeting - still plenty of places available! british-dragonflies.org.uk/event/bds-spri… Pls RT!
There are still places available on Saturday's online Spring meeting - it will be an interesting day! british-dragonflies.org.uk/event/bds-spri…
Updating my stock presentation slides for some upcoming talks & I'm feeling super positive despite having a very busy & complex diary! So to spread that positivity, here's some photos of our #conservation & #NatureRecovery action at #Corrour! #AzureHawker #tallherbs #montanescrub
I love this photo of a newly emerged Northern Emerald at Key Site Beinn Eighe NNR showing the size of the exuvia and also how rounded the end of the abdomen is. #TeamDragonfly #Bogpools #Highlands #Peatland
Well, that’s another #wildlifepond ready for lining. Loving the shape of this one. Hard to tell from the pic, but it’s a rough clover leaf shape ☘️ In a matter of weeks, this #pond will be teeming with life, after being planted with native #wildflowers, lilies & oxygenators 🐸…
Have you booked your place for the Spring Meeting on March 16th yet? All details on the website here: british-dragonflies.org.uk/event/bds-spri…
Better late than never!
