At Bouldnor Forest ponds today the male Southern Migrant Hawker was patrolling his rapidly diminishing pond in spite of the attentions of another male.It would seem that this site has a very suitable habitat for this species as other ponds on the site have dried up too,save two that have a low water level and are guarded by male Emperor Dragonflies.
At the Southern Emerald scrapes only a female Lestes sponsa was recorded and it is hoped that soon Lestes barbarus will return to breed.
