Minimalism

♀ Calopterix haemorrhoidalis in the Chicamo River, Abanilla, Murcia, Spain.

The Copper Demoiselle is a large damselfly. Like all European Calopteryx species, its flight is fluttery and butterfly-like and - uniquely among European odonata - Calopteryx males engage in a dazzling display flight to attract females into their territories.
