| | | Just another form of Blue-tailed? Hi! I'm wondering what this is, please? Usually when I wonder that, it turns out to be a Blue-tailed damselfly! Thanks for any advice! |

It seems to be a rufecens-obsoleta form female Blue-tailed Damselfly - although I've never seen one so dark! |

| | | Re: Just another form of Blue-tailed? Well thank you Roy and Oy! That's very kind. I didn't think I was going to get an answer. I've googled rufescens-obsoleta, and from what I can tell that's just one of the common forms of the Blue-tailed yes? So this is just an unusually dark one? I shall keep a look-out for her again when I'm sitting by the nature pond with my camera. She stood out enough for me to take the shot - this being the long shot... |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
