LOBSTER MOTH. My first from the parking area for Aish.
Golden-ringed Dragons are everywhere now and a real treat. Just spotting my first Green-eyed bees. @britishdragonflies.bsky.social @savebutterflies.bsky.social @devonbird.bsky.social @the-wildlifetrusts.bsky.social @dwt-bystockvols.bsky.social

Dotted Bee-fly. Considered rare in Devon. An annual visit to Orley Common late April can be successful. Just two spotted amongst the Dark edged Bee-fly's this year.
What an absolute stunner.

It seems to be a good year for Violet Oil beetles. I counted 39 along a short stretch of path at my favourite location on South Dartmoor. Always excited to see any species of Oil Beetles but these take some beating.

A really early sighting for me and my first Odonata of 2025.
Several flying at Orley Common 31st March.

Speckled Wood. Probably an underrated butterfly but what a cracker it is. Several flying on Orley Common 31st March.

A real treat. Hare spotted while walking above Petertavey on Dartmoor today.

Wounders to behold. Long lost but not forgotten. Delighted to spot two Small Tortoiseshell near Buckfastleigh on the 26th. Fingers crossed for more.

Green Tiger beetles emerging in good numbers on Bovey Heath. Seems early but a most welcome and uplifting sight in the first proper warming sunshine.

Spring delights first of March in a cold wind. A real treat.
