The first couple of weeks in July are a good time to search for the Banded Demoiselle . A common enough damselfly in England but down here in the south west the river Tamar is about as far west as thy can be found, so a nice local one for me. A delightful large Damsel with a butterfly like flight, I first visited the site on a mid morning and the next day went very early hoping to get them still resting and maybe with a covering of dew, they were not quite as dewy as I'd hoped but still very nice and good to be out at this time of day.
