Emerald Damselfly (Lestes sponsa) - North Antrim - August 2025. Lots about on the local bogs at the moment. #emeralddamselfly #odonata #nature @ulsterwildlife.bsky.social
Common Emerald damselfly (female, I think) at the side of a bog pond near Mám Éan in the Maumturk mountains in west Galway. #EmeraldDamselfly #CommonSpreadwing #LestesSponsa #Galway #MámÉan #Connemara #Ireland
A profile view of a fresh female Emerald Damselfly, clinging to a rush stem. She is orangey-buff, with panels of deep metallic green on her thorax and the upper surface of her abdomen. Her head is green and her eyes and face are brown.
