Pedant alert: wtf is a dameslfile?

Its one half of a pair of dameslfiles of course....

Great picture, what kit did you use?

***Pedant Alert*** and trying to see if I retained some knowledge from many years ago but are they Dameslfiles? I "think" the Dragonfly holds its wings out rather than folded as above ?

Thank you!
The photo of the two mating damselflies was taken with a Lumix GX80 in conjunction with an Olympus 60mm F2.8 macro lens. Damselflies and dragonflies belong to the same family so they look similar to each other. The eyes of damselflies are separated on the head and their bodies are slender in shape. Normally they fold their wings against the body when at rest as dragonflies hold the wings flat and away from the body.

Many thanks and more nice pictures, they're brilliant. We get a number of Damselflies and Dragonflies here but they don't tend to settle at all....
