Banded Demoiselle

1st July 2015 – sunny spells/hot SE1
Notice
It is with great sadness that we learn that Ian Kinley has passed away after a short illness. Ian was a staunch supporter of the observatory for many years and a serving member of the committee. His friendly demeanour will be sorely missed at both a local and county level.
Diurnal migration
A few Swift continue to move through.
Butterflies and Moths
A few Painted Lady and Red Admiral continue to be seen. Ghost Moth is newly emerged.
Dragonflies
A male Banded Demoiselle is the latest addition to the island dragonfly list.
