Mixed Strumpshaw Fen on a warm but slightly too windy day...

[Uncle Kevriano]

Just 4 keepers from a short visit to Strumpshaw today. We went for the Swallowtails, but it was too windy for there to be numbers of them around, and also too windy for Dragonflies. A shame, but at least one Swallowtail obliged

Nice set of photos, love the banded demoiselle.

Again shows how versatile the 200-600 is.

Thanks Dave. Yes it is. Must go up to How Hill when it's less windy
