Calopteryx maculata
A floating damselfly, this species flies like a butterfly. It will move away about 10ft at a time everytime it sees you move. The trick to getting close to an Ebony jewelwing is to move towards it as it is flying and stand still as it lands.

It is a lovely damselfly. I have to upload mine. I just don't know it it is the same. The one I saw was about almost 2 inches long. Great shot!
