Calopteryx virgo

Beautiful Demoiselle

Calopteryx virgo

Linnaeus, 1758

 

Beautiful Demoiselle photographed near a slowly flowing stream. I took this photograph hand-held with my Sigma 105 mm f/2.8. I approached this damselfly very carefully, because they are quit skittish and escape when they detect any motion.

 

South-eastern Poland.
