The weather was gorgeous this morning, even though chilly and a bit windy. We decided to walk along a few steams in the New Forest, hoping to catch some late dragonfly activity.
From Cadman's Pool we walked to Holly Hatch Brook and followed that for a while.
About 25-30 common darters, mostly males, but also a few single females and a few ovipositing tandems.
Then we crossed over Hollickshole Hill to Latchmore Brook ...
... and more common darters.
... and about half a dozen migrant hawkers patrolling up and down along the forest edges.
Tables are pretty simple after today (one = 1; few = 2-4; several = 5-9; many = 10+).
