Found near the pond. This is a very small spreadwing.

The detail in the head of the damselfly (I assume), including the luminous royal blue of its eyes, is terrific.

So beautifully sharp...it's amazing you could get so close before he flayed away.V

it seems to be living up to it's name with the splayed wings....those deep blue eyes are fascinating...
