Although about a week early, I thought I would have a visit to Oare Marshes this morning to see whether any Scarce Emerald Damselfly and Dainty Damselfly had emerged yet. On arrival, it was a little chilly with a cold wind which wasn't going to help out at all. I spent some time walking through the grasses, checking the sheltered areas but unfortunately, I didn't find any of the target species. For my troubles, I did manage to see 1 Hairy Dragonfly, 1 Variable Damselfly, 2 Azure Damselfly and 2 Blue tailed Damselfly. I have a couple of weeks of work coming up at the end of next week so weather permitting, I shall be making another visit soon to see whether they have emerged and hopefully, a session or two studying and photographing them.
