New Forest specials.......

4 July - A last sunny morning at the end of the fine weather spell, and at Acres Down Silver-studded Blues were flitting low over the heather (1-3). At Slufters Pond nearby (an acidic pool,4, in the Forest) a freshly emerged immature male Black Darter signalled the start of the flight season (5-6), while Keeled Skimmers (7) buzzed low and Emperors (8) patrolled the pool. Common Blue Damselflies were on the weedy margins.
