Little Gem

I think it is a type of Damselfly......not sure
This one was no more than 2 inches long with a body like the lead in a pencil. Photographing insects and little things makes you slow down and pay close attention to what there is to see when you really look close.

A beautiful macro, Donny! The closest ID I could make on this one was female of the Furtive Forktail.
