River Thames near Shillingford - 12 September

Willow Emerald Damselfly - 6 including a tandem pair ovipositing on a Willow stem. 

Along the Thames, at the Earth Trust - River of Life backwaters, north west of the Shillingford Bridge Hotel 

SU 5898 9280

From Shillingford bridge hotel, follow the footpath on the south side of the Thames (not the Thames path) north west for about 1km where you reach the Keen Edge Ferry, permissive footpath extension.

The Willow Emeralds were in the backwater near the gate marked by the red dot.
