Small Skippers etc

We have dozens of Small Skipper butterflies on our grassland at Sunnybank, Todmorden. Also similar numbers, or more, of Common Blue damselflies in the same habitat.

Also seen a Southern Hawker dragonfly just emerged from pond in same area and its case next to it.

  1. We have also seen many butterflies, particularly Meadow Brown in huge numbers and also like you, Common Blue damselflies.
    What concerns me again though, is the lack of Lady Birds!
