Beautiful Demoiselle, Male (Calopteryx virgo)

One of about seven individuals at a 'new' site in Leicestershire - this is still an ucommon damselfly in the county with just a few known sites where it can be found with any degree of cetainty. The fact that there were seven here probably means they've been here for a while waiting for someone to come along and find them.
