Another hot weather walk in the New Forest this morning found us following a small stream on the flat which helped us keep cool. There were many Dragonflies – Emperor Dragonflies were “dipping”. An action where they lay their eggs.

Another Dragonfly that was about in good numbers was the Golden-ringed Dragonfly.

A few bird spots.

Nuthatch.

Blue Tit.

A lucky spot walking back to the van was a young Grass Snake.
