These are very nice shots, especially at f2.8 on the second one. I think the third one is more likely to be a Common Emerald (it is an 'Emerald' of some sort as its wings are held out sideways like a dragonfly and all other Damsels hold their wings parallel with the body) The Scarce Emerald apparently is very common in the USA but very rare here in the UK and is only found in one or two sites in the Thames Estuary and in Norfolk. They can be told apart by detailed examination of the claspers at the end of the abdomen, and no, I don't know how!

Thanks Adrian, Your right about the Emerald. Googled imaged checked and the Common Emeralds on there are the same as mine, will change the title now, its difficult for the untrained eye like mine.
