Saturday darter




a real surprise was finding this teneral Red-veined Darter on the local patch on Saturday 16th--although a pair were seen ovipositing in June the pool they used was later inundated by the tide but it looks as if an adjacent pool where they were not seen may also have been used--a very distinctive darter rather easy to ID from colour and the blue lower eyes of course
