  3. Beautiful!
    One of the 2 species I don't have where I live in France!
    Calopteryx amaze me: their males are the only dragonflies to court a female instead of kidnapping her!
    Well done!

  4. Thank you Noushka. It's good to know that that the Calopteryx males have a sensitive side to their nature.
