The Living Forest (364) : Large Red Damselfly

Each spring, the large red damselfly is mostly the first damselfly to come out (usually from late april).

Dutch name : Vuurjuffer (ook Rode Waterjuffer genoemd)
German name : Frühe Adonislibelle (auch Frühe Adonisjungfer genannt)
Latin name : Pyrrhosoma nymphula

***

The shot was made last week on a pleasant sunny day.
This week it’s bitterly cold over here with regularly snow showers (currently 20 cm of snow on Hohes Venn !)
Poor little damselfly…..

    so pretty, this slender little fairy-buzzer ; )! and SO pretty looking in your gallery right next to the similarly tinted pink blossom whose name i forget (cranberry??) and can't check by klicking into the shot right now, for fear of losing what's been written of my comment already. ah, commenting is such an onerously tiresome business these days… or maybe cumbersome is as cumbersome does… ; ) greetings, sabine. p.s.: hope he managed to deal with the unsuspected cold spell, and didn't become the first casualty of the hohes venn this year… ; ))
