Sunbathing common lizard
While at Thursley Common we came across this lizard sunbathing in the open on some flattened grass, I’ve not seen one in this sort of basking spot before.

A quick 1 photo post of a small red damselfly on Thursley Common.
While at Thirsley common I came across a number of bog bush crickets Metrioptera brachyptera, but this male was the most cooperative, as it sat and posed on the boardwalk. I got a close up too.
Here is a video of a emerald damselfly (Lestes sponsa) doing ‘the worm!’ It is really using its abdomen to clean its wings, which was interesting to watch. You can tell from the video there was a bit of breeze yesterday!
