I moved to the Cheshire / Wirral / North Wales borders in August last year and have only recently had a chance to explore my local areas of interest.
My time is going to be limited with photo work committments over the next few months so I thought I would ask anyone who lives in the area if they know of any good locations specifically for the smaller stuff (butterflies, dragonflies, damsles, demoiselles etc)
You'll find quite a few areas on there whith the fauna you are after.
If you find yourself around the Sandbach/Crewe area drop me a line or give me a call - Nick should be putting me number up on the photographers page shortly.
I am a member of both the Wildlife Trust and the RSPB so I'll take a look at the places you suggest. With so many opions and so little time, it's good to have some recommendations

If your a RSPB member Inner Marsh Farm is very nice, near Neston, though its betterfor waders and birds
Frodsham Marsh is a nice spot too, a good spot for butterflies.
If you dont a mind a little drive Tatton Park is excellent for dragonflies and damsles.
If you fancy a longer drive, i could give you a good walk around my neck of the woods, in the Pennines.
