You know it's nearly dragonfly season when...

After the coldest March in the UK since Lord Kelvin discovered that his favourite number was -273, I'm not expecting any huge fanfare in the next week to herald the beginning of the dragonfly flight season.

However, there can be no doubting that it is on its way, because today the postman delivered these...

The Spring 2013 edition of Dragonfly News and the BDS Journal, plus the yearly Darter magazine.

Now that is a sight to gladden the heart and is perhaps just cause for a small snifter by way of celebration?

Cheers!
