Blue Ringtail Damselfly, Lake Wendouree, Ballarat, Victoria

A beautiful sunny Summer’s day today with the temperature in the mid twenties. I took the opportunity to take some photos around Lake Wendouree here in Ballarat, while the grandkids went on Santa’s tram! In addition to a wide range of birdlife, there were a number of damselflies too. This shot of a pair of Blue Ringtail Damselflies (Austrolestes annulosus), also enjoying the sunshine. The male is the brighter blue on the right.
