Got quite excited (for me) when I spotted this sitting on the side of a jug next to my koi pond . First time I've spotted one- looks quite mean

Thanks Skippy and Ziggy

Skippy- I knew damselflies laid their eggs in my pond (I've got lots of pics of them doing it) but assumed my Koi would eat any results so I was really suprised to spot this by the side of the pond.
