Migrant Hawker (male): These awesome, stunning dragons skimming low across the water or settled with their wings open are a pretty common sight on calm, sunny days in late August.
The large blue adults are day-flying and are usually seen over freshwater, near river banks, streams or ponds. Adult dragons are relatively short-lived lasting around two months.
Its just half an hour’s drive from Hull and managed by the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust already has a big reputation for some impressive wildlife and plenty of great ways to enjoy it.
Migrant Hawker (male & female): The circular walk around the main lakes lead to patches of reeds where the the skies were teaming with dragons and damsels.
Common Darter (female): I could have spent hours here if it wasn't for the heat and the early arming catching upon me.
