banded demoiselle

[Stephen Baker]

Not a true macro I am afraid more of a close up, as this particular morning I couldn't get close enough to use my macro lens so instead I settled for sitting slightly further back and using my 50-500 to get the shots.

Thanks for looking, Stephen.

Very nice, Stephen. We've had quite a few of these over the last year, every one different, every one beautiful. The leaf also looks beautiful here. I suspect you are just using the insect as a cover for showing us another leaf!

Lovely insects Banded Demoiselles, in flight they remind me of little Fairies.
