Although many damselflies are black and blue in coloration, I was particularly struck by the powdery blue coloration on the upper body of this damselfly when I first spotted it, a beautiful shade of blue interrupted only by a very thin line of black. I did some searching about on the internet and have concluded that this is probably a Blue-fronted Dancer damselfly (Argia apicalis).
I really like the way that the blue colors of this damselfly help it stand out in an otherwise mostly monochromatic image. I also enjoy the fact that this damselfly comes from a family of dancers, a term that seems appropriate for these aerial acrobats.
Dance on, tiny damselflies, dance on through the summer.

Blue is not Benjamin’s favorite color, but he thinks this is a “very pretty blue” and was pointing out all of the blue parts on the damselfly. He noted the : “Blue on his body, head, legs, and tail and on the back of his wings too.” Thank-you, Mr. Mike!!
The blue colouration stands out beautifully in your photo Mike, and dancer is a great term!
