We started our walk at the Burton Park nature reserve, and followed a route that never took us far from either Burton Mill pond or Chingford pond. The attraction of these areas at this time of year is the damselflies and dragonflies which were out in abundance. Along lanes, through fields and woodland the beautiful birdsong was, at times, like an orchestra.

Thank you John and Diana for this Beautiful Video of our Stunning Nature.
You are welcome, Richard. Thank you for watching it and supporting us! We are pleased you enjoyed it.
Another wonderful video with stunning scenery and lots of interesting wildlife, all expertly filmed as always. I often drove past Burton Mill in long-ago days, and always had to stop and admire the views, no matter how much in a hurry I might be. It's great to know that things stay very much the same more than 50 years later.
Thank you kindly, Jim. Burton Mill appears to be one of only a few places in W Sussex that has remained unchanged. Long may it continue, as it allows for greater wildlife diversity.
beautiful filming..!!
Thank you kindly 😊
Some lovely footage there.
Thank you kindly 😊
Exceptional macro photography. Must have taken a long time ! Thank you so much for re-visiting places I knew long ago.
Thank you kindly, Brian. The filming takes a very long time! Diana and the dog are very patient!
A wonderful footage again ! Thank you so much and ahhh "damselfly" !!! I love your language ! greets from Hamburg
Thank you kindly, Gabi. Pleased you enjoyed it.
Fabulous filming. Loved every second of it. Thank you for such professional, interesting, and beautiful topics. It is so lovely to see such beautiful countryside that has been captured so well that you feel you could actually be there ❤. That bird 🐦 song too 🎵 .. wow . X
Thank you for your kind comments, Frances. The birdsong that morning was amazing, and we hope we did it justice. The damselflies and dragonflies are such beautiful creatures. We are pleased you enjoyed the video, and thank you for watching. x
Another superbly crafted video. I do look forward to seeing them. I understand why you labelled it ‘dragons & damsels’ haha!’They are fascinating creatures! I am totally ignorant on the subject. I do remember being on the Thames at Abingdon & seeing hordes of them there!
What I do notice is directly a neighbour instals a water feature suddenly out of nowhere we see ( I think) dragonflies in our garden! Very often large brown ones. At the moment, all ponds etc have been removed so no flying visitors but it is a glorious sight when they are around!
Your close-up photography is impressive- thanks!
Thank you for your kind comments, Diana. The dragonflies and damselflies are the final, short-lived stage. The larvae of some species will spend up to a year under water before emerging. They are such beautiful creatures, especially the demoiselles in flight. Pleased you enjoyed it.
