Dainty spreadwing damsel in the sun

Pretty little spreadwing damselfly at rest.

 

Genus Lestes, family Lestidae. This family hold their wings at around 45 degrees to the body when resting. This distinguishes them from most other species of damselfly which hold the wings along, and parallel to, the body when at rest.
