Just recieved my copy in the post today! 
WOW!
Not too bothered about all the stunning illustrations by Andrew Mackay, he's just your average run of the mill Artist (LOL   ) (Seriously though: - a really nice job Andy! well done )
It's a fantastic book - full of great sites, split into 2 parts: a site guide and a gazetteer. Most of these sites are unknown to me, but I would now like to go and visit many of them!
It is obviously a great field guide, again split into 2 parts, a "quick guide" to get a rough idea, and a more detailed species account.
Must go now as I need to read some more of this book!

Having recently let my "already far too full of interest in other wildlife" brain skirt the very edges of "dragonflies" after going on a survey i think i may have to invest in this tome? |
