Kirkstall Valley

Sunday afternoon saw us wandering alongside the canal in Kirkstall valley. A very restful place this.
Lots of Damselfly and as the afternoon warmed up there were many Brown Hawker dragonfly scooting about over the water, in the hedgerows and adjacent fields.
These Hawkers seem to seldom come to rest so we were grateful to see this one still for a few seconds.
