White faced darter on hand 2016
I seem to have been super busy lately, hence squashing two months into one post, but I wouldn’t want it any other way and it means I’ve been spending lots of time out and about in the varying Cumbrian summer weather. At the beginning of July I helped with some white-faced darter monitoring at Scaleby Moss, something I haven’t done before, and had a very enjoyable day peering at the edges of pools looking for exuviae – turns out I have quite a good eye for it! This is a female white faced darter.
