Southern Man

 
A return trip to Quy Fen to look for Southern Migrant Hawkers proved successful and we watched 2 or 3 during the morning and 1 in particular was faithful to a small area of reed and fence line which allowed us to try some photography.  It was a striking dragonfly and it's intense blue eyes and white facial blaze gave it a great character and it was a feisty defender of its air space.
 
 
 
 
 
Our return took in a stroll along the Devil's Dyke between Burwell and Swaffham Bulbeck.  The banks were alive with Chalkhill Blues and we saw several pairs in communion.
