I visited the Little London formation between 6
and 7pm on the 4th. Unfortunately, although a little late on the
scene, almost straight away I thought the formation was a little on
the messy side. I found many stems broken in multiple places and the
lay of the crop didn't immediately grasp my enthusiasm. Especially
around the uncommon fractions of circles along the tail, but also
around the perimeter of the 'wings', the lay of the crop didn't
match up to the complexity and natural flowing precision of previous
formations. However, every formation is unique and I for one have
never seen a dragonfly this big before!
An earlier examination may have provided more interesting
observations.
