Fascinating Colorful Damselfly (Euphaea aspasia)
Known as Euphaea aspasia, in the genus of damselfly, under the family Chlorocyphidae. Since it has smaller and slender body, I managed to look for possible angle so that it could be taken properly. This species is regarded as beautiful damselfly that mostly live throughout tropical countries. Look like a little dragonfly but it tends to be classified into damselfly. After spending some time, I was finally able to capture some pictures of these two fascinating species of winged insect. I found this species along the stream, a member of damselfly that commonly lives near the stream or rocky river. When I was passing the mountain road, my friend told me that there is a beautiful damselfly hanging out near the stream. He was right! We made a stop and started looking for them. After searching along the stream, I finally saw one or three of them were nicely standing on the twig but I had to stand carefully on the edge of the stream. By the time I saw it has dark eyes with colorful body, which gave me another reason to stay little longer playing with the click.
