Large red damselfly

I think the ID is correct.
Trialling a new camera this afternoon and grabbed a few of this lovely damselfly. Tried to recompose to get the light coloured stick in the background out of shot but it was off as quick as it arrived.

Thanks for looking.

Very nice, I've not seen any damsels or dragons come to that, so far.

Thanks very much. It's my first this year, been so cold so far.
