Spotted my first dragonfly of the year the other day in the garden. A male broad bodied chaser.

Presume this is on your pond; might soon be worth a trip to Thursley.

Actually on the neighbour's pond, yes there's a few other gardens I might try.

They're great aren't they? One visited my pond a day or two ago, but I wasn't out with my camera.
