Field Notes

Description:

This damselfly was around 2 inches long, a brilliant blue, and had a wingspan of what looked like around 1 inch. It moved very erratically, never stopping for long, and always zipping right over the pond's edge.

Habitat:

A pond, with a few plants and lilies in it. Quite sunny.
