🔍 Species Spotlight: Emperor Dragonfly

One of the UK's largest and most spectacular dragonflies, the Emperor Dragonfly is hard to miss as it patrols ponds and lakes. Look for its apple-green thorax, sky-blue abdomen (in males) and powerful, fast flight, often rarely settling for long.

If you're spotting dragonflies during PondWatch weekend, don't forget to record your sightings on iRecord. Every record helps us build a better picture of dragonfly populations across the UK.

And there's more exciting news... the Emperor Dragonfly has been shortlisted as a potential design for the next UK banknotes! 💷✨ If you'd like to see this magnificent species in everyone's pocket, be sure to cast your vote.
