Not one of this year's Large Red Damselflies but they are soon to be on the wing as another seven months (or more) of dragonfly fun is about to begin.

Time for me to plug the Yorkshire Branch of the British Dragonfly Society which features masses of information and an archive of sightings going back several years, plus lots of cracking photos and identification hints.

Also well worth a look is the East Riding Dragonfly Atlas which features mapping of all the species that can be found within VC61, flight periods, earliest and latest dates and historical information on when they were first recorded in the region.

Anyone wishing to submit records can find the contact details for the recorder, Paul Ashton, on the Yorkshire BDS site.
