We went back to West Knighton Reserve to look for the Scarlet Darter.

We didn't see very many Dragonflies as it was overcast during most of the morning.

We saw a few Emperor Dragonflies, Scarce Chaser, Blue-tailed Damselflies, Common Blue Damselflies, Azure Damselflies & a Female Common Blue Butterfly. We saw at least 20 Wasp Spiders around the site.

While we were waiting for the weather to get better, we popped along to Radipole Lake RSPB in Weymouth.

We saw Mediterranean Gulls, Feral Pigeons, Moorhens, Grey Heron & a Marsh Harrier.

Insects we saw were Speckled Woods, Red Admiral, Scarlet Tiger Moth, Male Common Blue Butterfly, Female Azure Damselfly & a Female Blue-tailed Damselfly.

We headed back to West Knighton Reserve to look for the Scarlet Darter again.

The warm weather brought out a few more Dragonflies on the wing.

Black-tailed Skimmers, Keeled Skimmers, Four-spotted Chasers & Lesser Emperors.

The highlight of the day was a single Male Scarlet Darter, which showed very well in the late afternoon sunlight.
