An unusual damselfly - the White-legged Damselfly

On his regular lunchtime walk around GP, Darren B spotted a White-legged Damselfly.  Most commonly seen in central southern England, this species is not common in East Anglia, and was the first time Darren had seen it on the GP site.

The female he saw has distinctive white extended edges to the tibia (lower legs), particularly the hind legs, and a pale brown wingspot.
