Disposal Point Odonata: Great excitement here this morning when Paul Meredith found a RED-EYED DAMSELFLY on the West Pond Nostell. It's the first local record and is in the Barnsley BSG recording area, but unfortunately is 570 linear metres outside the Wintersett area! Paul also saw
5+ male Emperors on the West Pond with at least 13 males at MHLBig Pond. A male Emerald Damsel at the West Pond with 2+ at MHL Big Pond. 2 male Southern Hawkers were also just outside our recording area. Also Ruddy Darter 1 Big Pond.
