At this time we would expect to see the first Southern Hawkers making an appearance and it was good to see a first of the season at Yarmouth today.This immature female was flying along a woodland ride in search of prey and regularly alighted on a suitable perch to rest and eat.
At the Southern Emerald site I was pleased to find two males and a female at the larger scrape.All were discovered among the reeds of the scrape.With the weather set to warm up considerably over the next week it is hoped that more individuals will be recorded, although this site has never seemed to produce high numbers of Lestes barbarus.
