I enjoy learning about and photographing #damselfly & #dragonfly. 2025 I assisted with dragonfly surveys at Portbury Wharf NR, Portishead. Now booked on ID training mid-March, nicely timed for their re-emergance. Visiting Avalon Marshes Centre, Somerset, for training. @wildportishead.bsky.social

Great Spotted Woodpecker in Eastwood, Portishead, playing hard-to-get and remaining high in the trees. Pictured from below really does show off the long sharp pointed bill. Second picture shows areas of bark broken from the trees, result of foraging for insects. (27.01.26) #avonbirds #ukwildlife
