There were hundreds of damselflies all darting about over the place but I managed to capture the female here and though it's not fantastic, it's the first White-legged I have seen
That's fantastic, Beryl!
Is it an albino - or a separate species?
Thank you Catherine
No. Not albino. It is just one of the gang so to speak
White-legged Damselfly - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This one looks different in a number of aspects from all the photos I've seen of the White Legged females (young or old) - e.g. the eyes seem more blue rather than brown and it doesn't have as many stripes on the side of the thorax. So what is it that confirms it as a White-legged?
As it happens it's a common Blue Female
So sorry for the mistake
