Aston, 23rd August

A female Common Darter was ovipositing in my garden pond today, first in tandem with the male, then with the male guarding her. There was another male around as well. That's the third species which has laid eggs in the pond (that I know of, anyway).

  1. Sounds like your new pond is doing well. What were the other two species?
