Jewel of creek




(click to enlarge)

Ebony Jewelwings are very friendly damselflies, they will often will land on you. They live near creaks and water sources. Males are an electric blue green color. Females are brown. I have shown a photo of the male and female Jewelwings mating. When they are mating, they make a heart shape with their bodies. Hope you find a jewel of your own. Enjoy!
