April 2009

The Start of the Dragonfly Season 2009 in Derbyshire.

The Herald species for Derbyshire, The Large Red Damselfly has certainly come out early this year.

The 14th April record at Calke is the earliest emergence ever!

Please let Derbyshire Dragonflies know of your records this year and add them to the data base.

We apolgise for the lack of updates and the posting of photo's at the close of the last season. Unfortunately the failure of two computers and the cost of replacing them slowed down the updating of our web site. We sincerely hope that this has not dissuaded you from visiting regularly this season for updates.

Here's looking forward to a great season ahead!

Regards,

Peter & Richard
