On the way home we dropped into Tissington and had lunch at the same tea room!<br />(We spent around an hour saying "How much??????" into the shop windows in Castleton first though.)<br />You spotted a lot of wildlife. Well done capturing shots of the dragonflies.

Super photos and adore those newly fledged wrens :) Not sure about dragonfly id - not my best subject!!! but I think the second one might be the Southern Hawker?
