Love the first three, Ryan… well rendered!

Never seen the fourth, so I can not appreciate.

Lovely set of shots from the riverbank. Not seen a yellow damselfly - not sure where you took it.

Thanks Kodiak

Cheers Chris, definitely not an usual suspect for me where this was shot in the Cambridgeshire fens.

here is a full body shot, not the best but I only got 2 before it got spooked out.
