Dragonfly Pools Burwash Farm Barton

I made my first proper visit to Burwash Pools today and was amazed by the amount of water everywhere. There was a lot of dragonfly activity and I photographed two new species for my records of the area - the Migrant Hawker and the Brown Hawker. Many of the insects were very damaged though still managing to fly - I guess the result of the heavy rain recently. Species in order Male Emperor Dragonfly,  Pair of Common Darters, Four-Spot Chaser, Pair of Emerald Damselflies, Male Migrant Hawker, Ruddy Darter, Female Brown Hawker, Common Blue Butterflies and an inquisitive cow.
