Great to see our first large red damselfly of the year taking a breather on some leaves at #LowerSmiteFarm . This distinctive species is a focus of our wildlife sightings scheme, so if you spot one please send in your records! 👇

Bengeo garden came alive today: Emperor Moth (Saturnia pavonia), Large Red Damselfly (Pyrrhosoma nymphula) & Rose Chafer (Cetonia aurata). BNA – Herts branch

A Large Red Damselfly we found on Cavenham Heath NNR , 8/04/2024

西洋においてはトンボは基本的には不吉な虫と考えられた。英名を dragonfly というが、ドラゴンはその文化において不吉なものということを考えると得心がいく。一方で、イトトンボ類には damselfly （ダムゼルフライ、damsel は乙女の意）といった優雅な呼称もある。

What a beautiful day we had at Tombane #Rewilding #Northwoods last week - they have dug 3 new Northern Damselfly ponds and have 2 more to go! We hope they will be colonised very soon - watch this space for training & volunteer days this summer 🐉🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🐉 #TeamDragonfly

A couple of days with sunshine makes all the difference. Several new for year butterflies - Orange tip and Red Admiral in Tiddesly woods, Small White (I think!) and Holly Blue in my Garden plus an unexpected Red Damselfly - seems early - and Comma in Lineover Wood

IDK why I'm getting a Christmas vibe in April...
