Female banded demoiselles are as striking in appearance as the males. They, too, have bodies which are vivid and shiny. They, too, rest sunning themselves on waterside leaves. But they don’t do so as often. Even when they do, they are harder to spot, being green against the green of the leaves.
All the pictures in this set are of the same individual, the only one I could see in contrast to the several males which featured in yesterday’s post.
