As I mentioned in a previous post, on a recent explore at Emmons Preserve in Kennebunkport, the Ebony Jewelwings were super abundant and super active. We have two males and a female here, the males resting from the incessant aerial combat over the stream.

Nikon Coolpix P500 at 500mm equivalent field of view, f5.7 @ 1/320th @ ISO 160. Close-Up mode. This is a full-frame, uncropped shot.
