jcluckDescription
A poorly focused photo.....also seen Blue Damselfly and Sentry. However, relatively few damselflies on the several ponds at the Botanic Gardens. I have created 2 small ponds in England which have attracted 14 species, considerably in excess of the total NZ number of species. I am surprised by the minimal numbers of dragonflies one sees in NZ on apparently suitable water bodies....also why more species haven't flown over from Australia and become resident.
