A blackbird. A chaffinch singing.
Under the trees: relatives of the banded demoiselles of yesterday; this time beautiful demoiselles.

May 2011. This gorgeous, newly emerged, female Beautiful Demoiselle damselfly is the first damselfly or dragonfly we have seen this year. Despite the fact that our office is next to 2-3 ponds, we spotted this several miles away on the outskirts of Leominster, on the banks of the River Lugg. Females are very distinct from males. Females have a dark green metallic body, a bronze tail and brown irridescent wings: here.
