What an amazing year for dragonflies!  Perhaps because of the higher water levels such a variety in type and number of dragonflies has been seen flying about the Sanctuary.   The mosquitoes didn’t stand a chance!

With the high water levels, its also been possible to observe waterfowl incredibly close to the boardwalk which is quite interesting.  It is quite odd to see coots, mallards or grebes swimming through submerged tree trunks or even coming from beneath the boardwalk itself.
