Emerald Damselfly

Male Emerald Damselfly












Photographed today on the new pool at Harwood Dale, a first for me.

I had no idea from my ID card what they were but a few visits to Dragonfly sites show the pictures as the Emerald Damselfly.

Also present was Black Darters and larger Dragonflies, Southern Hawkers I think but they never settled.

Lots of Peacock butterflies a few Red Admirals, Speckled Wood and Small Skippers.
