Not exactly non-lincs birding,but thought it would be of interest anyway.
Made a trip at the weekend to see Club-tailed Dragonfly in Oxfordshire,with Dave Wright,Chris Atkin and Neil Drinkall,and had a cracking time.These are the highlights:

Goring
3 Club-tailed Dragonfly(including one just emerging from the Thames)
30+ White-legged Damselfly
100+ Banded Demoiselle
20 Red-eyed Damselfly

Streatley
10 Adonis Blue
5 Small Blue
Female Broad-bodied Chaser
Teneral Male Emperor

Moor Copse LNR.
150+ Beautiful Demoislle


For anyone interested in any info about visiting these places contact myself or Dave and we will gladly point you in the right direction.

Regards

Steve

Hi Phil,
The grid ref for Goring is SU604795,and the best area to look is near the railway viaduct,this is where the Club-tails emerge from the river,actually on the concrete walls sometimes.
The grid ref for the place at Streatley,is SU583807,and is a national trust car-park called Lorden Chase.
Finally the grid ref for Moor copse is SU634738,be carefull as it is only a small car-park.
Good hunting,

Regards

Steve
