    Damselflies and dragonflies are a group of insects that fascinate me. I could sit by the pond and watch them for hours. You have managed to get some great shots of the ones that visit your garden Kildale. :-D

    I don't know why I see so many as we only have a small pond, less than 5ft and not 2ft across, kidney shaped as well so it is even smaller. Also, all the picture were taken in the front garden where there is no water.
