My first sighting this year of an azure damselfly male, spotted today.
The first shot is a heavy crop using a 70-210 F4 tele. The second is less of a crop using a 1.4 TC with the zoom lens. C&C appreciated

Very good shots Mike - especially the first one being a heavy crop.

Not seen any blues at all yet.
