Azure Damselfly

The Azure Damselfly (Coenagrion puella) is one of the commonest and most widespread species of damselfly in Britain and as such, I have not paid this pretty little insect due attention over the years, safe in the knowledge that I can get photographs of it at any time. 

Well that time presented itself during lockdown and I decided to update some of my rather old photographs of puella.

 I have quite enjoyed the slower pace of nature watching that lockdown has brought, allowing me to soak up the beauty of everything around me at one of my local woods.
