Day 10 of the 2023 #dragonfly #AdventCalendar. It's a Sunday in Advent so I'll post my favourite species, the Banded Demoiselle. The female is bright green, the males have patterned wings and make display flights over the water to impress her. Beside the #RiverThames at #Goring #Oxfordshire in June. #DragonflyAdventCalendar #wildlife #insects #wildlifephotography #invertebrates
A large green insect with clear wings sits on a nettle leaf. She holds her wings closed, being a damselfly, but in other respects looks more like a dragonfly. Her wings have white spots near the tips, which are typical of female demoiselles.

Day 8 of the 2023 #dragonfly #AdventCalendar. The White-legged Damselfly is a particularly beautiful #damselfly with wide white legs & intricate patterning. It avoids ponds preferring slow-flowing rivers. This one was by the #RiverThames at #Goring #Oxfordshire in June. #DragonflyAdventCalendar #wildlife #insects #wildlifephotography #invertebrates
A needle-shaped pale blue insect with intricate black markings sits on a blade of grass. The river is out of focus behind it. The hind-most of the three pairs of legs have broad white flares attached to them, making them look very broad.
