Odonata: Banded Demoiselles


We had fun watching about twenty of these eye-catching insects as they flitted about along the River Lark in rural Suffolk. I have never seen so many at once. The ones in the photos are males. The female of the species looks (in my opinion) more like the usual damselfly.
