I was off down to the wetland area below our house this morning, but didn't get any further than the huge rosemary bush by the garage…. I was first attracted by the large bumble bees, but then saw this beautiful damselfly sunning himself. He is a blue damselfly (kekewai in Maori) and is NZ's largest damselfly (about 4-5cm long). I was pleased that he sat still enough for a shot (or ten)!
great shot.
