Lovely macro.
We normally see these damselflies around February, or late summer, in Melbourne.
Is this early for these little creatures in the UK?

Thanks, Vicki. I think our Damselflies are appearing at their normal time, more or less.

Great minds think alike Mike – I’ve just put up some shots of a large red damselfly!

I don’t know about great minds, Lucy. It’s probably more to do with the time of year and a sunny day. 🙂

I’ve seen them all my life but never this close. Do you mind me asking what kit lens you shot it with?

The lens used for this shot, Jerry, was a Canon 60 mm EF-S f2.8 macro lens.
