Peek-a-boo! Blue-tailed damselfly plays hide-and-seek with reed stem in Cornwall wetlands
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this comical snapshot captured by Ross Hoddinott, a mischievous blue-tailed damselfly (Ischnura elegans) decides to have some fun behind a tall reed stem in the picturesque wetlands of Cornwall, UK. With only half of its vibrant blue body visible, it seems like this tiny odonata is playing an amusing game of peek-a-boo. The damselfly's striking azure coloration and intricate wings make it stand out against the lush green backdrop. Its large compound eyes seem to sparkle with mischief as it hides from view, teasing us with its elusive presence. Perhaps it knows that its delicate beauty can captivate any observer. This enchanting moment reminds us that nature has a playful side too. It's not always about serious survival or fierce competition; sometimes creatures simply want to enjoy themselves and bring joy to those who appreciate their antics. As we gaze at this vertical composition, we are transported into the magical world of insects and marvel at their fascinating behavior. So next time you find yourself exploring the wetlands of Cornwall, keep an eye out for these delightful damselflies – they might just surprise you with their whimsical games!
