Excellent day Dragonflying around Kent. Highlights included 3 SOUTHERN EMERALD DAMSELFLY at Cliffe, 1 Southern Migrant Hawker, 3 GOLDEN RINGED DRAGONFLY in West Kent and 3 Keeled Skimmer at Hothfield. @britishdragonflies.bsky.social @smallshire.bsky.social #KentDragonflies
The 16th June was the first record I have received of this species this year, unless anyone has an earlier date. The nymphs at Nethergong have a few weeks to go yet I would say.
The first SOUTHERN MIGRANT HAWKER reported from Whitstable today and a BRILLIANT EMERALD from Tonbridge, Kent. @britishdragonflies.bsky.social #KentDragonflies
