Glen Affric Dragonflies
23 July - A sunny day in scenic Glen Affric (1,2), and some of the northern species seen - Black (4,5) and Highland Darters, a very flighty White-faced Darter (poor photo,8); Downy Emerald (3), Four-spotted Chaser (6) and Golden-ringed Dragonflies (7) - and Damselflies including Large Red (11) and Emerald (10) as well as Common Blue (9). I saw one probable Azure Hawker flyby but no others, and did not see Northern or Brilliant Emeralds. Butterflies included a Scotch Argus (and later Large Heaths on the hillside). There's always next year! Fantastic Caledonian Pine forest and bog, very atmospheric.
