I think it is some kind of clubtail...I was looking up some the other day for work.
This is a link to a pbase fella http://www.pbase.com/rconnorsnaturephoto/clubtails_etc
There are some other good ones too, I saved them at work and can send to you.
Some of them are really rare but so dif to identify accurately. Lovely shot!
