Female Beautiful Demoiselle (Calopteryx virgo) the female is characteristically metallic green unlike the male that has a metallic blue body with dark wings. It's mainly found along streams and rivers, particularly those with sand or gravel bottoms. The males can often be seen resting on vegetation waiting for females. They are one of my favourite damselflies because of the stunning metallic colours

Please excuse me if I don't get to comment people's images some days but I've had to return to a work life rather than become a pensioner as I had planned due cost of living and the tax man wanting a lump of my pension. I am making an effort to return to AM3 after a bit of an absence, it's really nice to see photo's from all contributors and I will try to comment when I can. If I offer criticism I do so only to help and I do not wish to cause offence. My photography tends to be from my travels, as well as my passion which is wildlife and landscape. I hope you enjoy what you see.
Thanks for your comments I'm really grateful for them and welcome constructive feedback.
