Standon Mayday

The weather was dry and reasonably warm at May Day this year and judging by the number of visitors to our stand and the conversations we had throughout the day, our presence was very well received. Young and old were intrigued by the collection of riverflies and other invertebrates that we managed to find in the river below Standon bridge. Watching an olive mayfly emerge from the water and fly off was particularly special – and we had some excellent conversations and introductions.
