Common darter (male?) briefly resting among the bullrushes in Trottick ponds. They suddenly appeared when the sun was shining strongly enough with one bopping my hat as it passed. Several blue dragonflies were seen, likely migrant hawker, but no clear pictures for ID. π·πΈποΈ #dragonflies #ukwildlife
Grey wagtail in the Dighty Burn in Finlathen Park. Pleased to get a clear view: the ones I usually see are often further away and in shadow. π·πΈποΈπͺΆ #birds #ukwildlife
