I saw this damselfly late morning the other day, I think it’s a Rambur’s Forktail. It caught a fly and was devouring it heartily; so busy eating it didn’t mind if I got closer. This made me wonder how the fly got caught when it flies faster… or so it seems. And I can see a smirk on its face in the last photo.
