Good night.

My post tonight. we will discuss the characters of insects and the like.

This animal is almost the same as a fly. the difference is: dragonflies have four wings while flies two wings. Although they are both members of the same order, they have little difference where when resting. their wings together, the dragonfly holding its wings or slightly down and forward and they are wider near the base. The eye on a separated, in some of the dragonfly eye touch. But they are, in the same order, making their lives very similar. The name of the dragonfly comes from their fierce jaw, which they use to capture its prey.

dragonfly has two large eyes that take most of its head. Dragonflies have long, smooth, transparent wings and some have a light yellow color near the tip. Their long, slender body.

Colorful dragonflies, such as red green. dragonfly has a green head and a blue belly. Some are red and yellow.

Dragonflies breathe through small holes located in their stomachs. They can beat every pair of wings together or separately.

All dragonflies are carnivores both in larval and adult stages of their lives. Dragonflies usually eat mosquitoes, pests and other small insects such as flies, bees and butterflies, catching its prey while flying. The ability of the Dragonfly to hunt in various directions makes them capable of out-flying prey.

Dragonflies also have the advantage of excellent vision. Each of their two large eyes consists of thousands of six-sided units. Together, the smaller eye allows the dragonfly to see even a little movement. They have large brain lobes.

Dragonflies are usually found around water such as rice fields, ponds, rivers and wetlands, known as water fairies.
