Sue Loose was out enjoying the heat of Whixall Moss on Sun 22nd and recorded the first Black Darter of the season- a female photographed beautifully below showing the diagnostic black triangle on top of the thorax and the 3 yellow splashes on the thorax side.
Amongst White-faced Darters, Brown and Southern Hawkers, Broad-bodied Chasers, Azure and Common Blue Damselflies, Sue also saw an Emerald Damselfly female and unlike myself actually got a picture- thank you!
