Mating Damselflies, Mid March

Yesterday I wandered by the spot where I witnessed Mating Damselflies, On Iris last April. The previous two nights had been below freezing so I was a bit surprised that there were a dozen or so tiny damselflies zipping around the edge of the pond.

It was breezy and my angle wasn’t great but I did capture this mating pair.
