April 29th:

Hairy Dragonfly - 1

If I hadn't read Steve and Colin's report of seeing them this early I would have thought we was mistaken.

Regards

John

Edmund,

You don't know what your missing at north Lincs superior site! :shock:

It doesn't have a visitor centre or toilets but what it does have is a diverse habitat, with something to please almost everyone, I say almost because some people are extremely hard to please. :lol:

Good luck on your forthcoming visit!

Max
