Not all of these are found nationwide and to give you an idea, one of the best odonata sites in my county of Devon - Little Bradley Ponds has 25 species recorded. The oldest of our two ponds is only 18 months old so we've been pretty lucky to have 8 species of odonata so far. Not a large number compared with your 40something, but it's quite a good record for the UK and should hopefully go up as the ponds become more established. <br /><br />I think that there are around 70 species of butterfly in the UK and we've had 11 so far.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13624194722106155800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1529657187251569190.post-72545010847425233122009-12-21T03:37:40.501+00:002009-12-21T03:37:40.501+00:00If you aren't already set up for digiscoping h...If you aren't already set up for digiscoping have a look at SRB Griturn for bits and pieces.
