Azure damselflies coupling
Male and female azure damselflies (Coenagrion puella). The male is the damselfly in front; the difference in the colouration of the sexes is clearly visible. Like other damselflies, they may remain in tandem like this for some time after mating, even while flying. These damselflies are pictured on Alchemilla mollis.
