Azure Damselfly

I don’t get many dragonflies in the garden, so it’s always good to snap one - often a bit of a challenge using a phone. Azure Damselfly (Coenagrion puella) is not so heavily tied to water as most species, so turns up here from time to time. This one is catching some evening sun on my potato plants.

There’s also a Southern Hawker (Aeshna cyanea) zipping around the garden this evening; another of the more regular dragonflies I get. But there’s not much hope of capturing that on my phone.
