First, not a good idea to post images here - best to do so on
alt.binaries.pictures.gardens.

The insect is question is a fairly common creature, a dragon or damsel fly.
Not sure what specific species, but they are found all over in areas with
some sort of water feature - lakes, ponds, swamps, slow moving streams, even
waterbowls, birbaths and other garden water attractions.

It's a dragon fly. Damsel flies wings are always held in the back position when
resting, and dragon flies have their two sets of wings outward, as you see yours
has. Which dragon fly it is, I haven't the clue.
