I recently emailed dragonfly recorders asking for 2016 records and received this lovely photo from Gareth Thomas of a Spotted Flycatcher with unlucky Banded Demoiselle! Caught last June apparently on the nearby Teme and carried to Gareth’s Ludlow garden. In the absence of any recent sightings I couldn’t resist posting it…and it also gives me another chance to say if you do have any dragonfly records please send them my way by Christmas and then I can sort them all and write the newsletter. Thank you!
