Crockford Bottom

We went back to Crockford Bottom today with a very clear target in mind: search the drier parts of the heathland for grayling. But of course, there is no way we could ignore the stream itself. And that stream basically gave us all the usual suspects, among which were beautiful demoiselle, southern damselfly, small red damselfly and golden-ringed dragonfly.



On to the heathland, and we were welcomed by a small copper.

And then a grayling, doing what a grayling does best: fly up, land and then become almost totally invisible ... But mission achieved!

Here are today's tables (one = 1; few = 2-4; several = 5-9; many = 10+):
