Shopping in Truro this morning we were surprised to see a damselfly on the windowsill of Waterstones bookshop, nowhere near water. Checking on various id sites we think it’s a male banded demoiselle, such a pretty creature. Do click on the photo to see the beautiful detail and feel free to give us a definitive id.
I’ve made a Coffee Cake for tomorrow’s town market and a mini one for us.

The detail on the photo is fabulous. All those intricate parts in a creature so tiny.

Remarkable isn’t it, such colour, such delicacy – such beauty. 🙂
