Appear to be in serious decline. For information about what you can do to help, both by providing habitats and contributing to a national survey, go to:

I'll take a look to see what we can do for them. They're such a wonderful site to see flying around on an early summer's eve. Not seen any this year but it's about the right time to start. |

Just checked out the site and it's interesting to see that logs left for wildlife can have one end buried up to two foot in the soil. I tend to shred a lot of large prunings and pile them up at the end of the garden to rot. This may also be a good habitat for the larvae so I'll keep an eye out for them.  |
