Rishworth Moor

Had a walk up to Dog Hill on Rishworth moor today , not much about but did see a very smart male Emperor flying around ,the odd Common Heath and a couple of Green veined Whites. Lots of small ponds , moss and  and standing water along the outflow of Green Withens which looks very good for Dragonflies ...  This cat was at 435m but looks like LYU ....On my return home the greenhouse held 1 Green veined White , 1Orange tip and 1 Large White......

Just a stone's throw away from here,, I'll go up there sometime this week,,, I have frequented Green Withens and yes to dragonflies,,, a good place for dragonflies I know of is on the Rochdale Road on the old packhorse trail...
