Hyper Active damsel fly...........

After yesterdays rather upsetting visit to the crematorium, i called in again this morning on my way home from work.

This time armed with my camera, i was hoping to get some shots of a damsel fly i'd seen hovering by the pond that sit nicely in the neatly kept lawns in the grounds of the crematorium.

Luckily the damsel fly was there again this morning, but unfortunately for me, in the hour i spent by the pond, the said damsel fly didn't settle or land once.
It'd hover here, no over there, no back over here, up a bit, down a bit, facing this way, facing that way, probably moon walking for all i know..........

For my part, my camera was up, down, zoomed in, zoomed out, spun to the left, spun to the right....all over the place.

I didn't get the close up shots i was hoping for, so i may have to try netting him and sticking him to a piece of wood... ;-)

You can view him large here.
