Description

As promised. Here is the green damsel from the same lily patch hunting grounds as the orange damsel that I posted yesterday. Remember it's size is around one and one quarter inch long, the long thin part of its body about the diameter of a pencil lead refill. The meal looks to me to be a tiny hoverfly or bee. Thanks for looking and for all of the comments. -GB- Still thinking of a newer camera, one with the ability to exchange to a macro lens....someday

those water drops really help give some scale to the size. Excellent clarity.

What a great shot! Catching him at mealtime! I enjoyed photographing a dragonfly last week, it would fly off its perch and grab a bug and come back and eat it. I captured a wing sticking out of his mouth .. that was it. YOU DID GREAT here!
