Large Red Damselfly

By Norfolkboy  
Good morning folks,
Another damselfly today, this is a another common variety.
The Large Red is found almost everywhere. Often seen in garden ponds as well as
ditches and by rivers. About the same size as the Common Blue, it likes to perch on bright
foliage.
Special thanks to Brian Curtis for correctly identifying my previous upload as an Azure Blue.
