Butterfly Flutterer (Rhyothemis fuliginosa, 黑丽翅蜻).
A diminutive dragonfly, which is sometimes called the 'butterfly dragonfly'. The Chinese name means 'black-winged butterfly: whether is wings appear black or a shade of iridescent blue depends on which angle. For me they are a twilight creature, as while I might spot one or two during the day, they appear in more significant numbers around the lotus ponds in the evenings when the day begins to cool, and they disappear again before it is dark.
