Dragonfly

Maybe we have forgotten this type of insect, "Dragonfly". Dragonfly, an insect which always lives around where we live. For the 90s generation, dragonflies are one animal that is very easy to find. Maybe some of you even used to play catching dragonflies. Dragonflies used to be not only one type, but various types of dragonflies, ranging from the smallest size to the largest size. Likewise with a variety of colors, from green, red, and others.

In general, dragonflies are a group of insects from the Odonata nation. These insects are rarely far from water, where they lay their eggs and spend their pre-adult children in the area. While Dragonflies (subordo Anisoptera) are relatively easy to distinguish from needle dragonflies (suborder Zygoptera). In general, it is relatively large and perched with wings open or extending sideways. While needle dragonflies are generally small (although there are some rather large types), have a thin stomach, like a belly needle, and perched with closed wings, upright together on their backs, you can distinguish between the pictures in this post.

Then the needle dragonfly spreads widely, in forests, gardens, rice fields, rivers and lakes, to the homes and urban environments. This dragonfly can be found from the beach to an altitude of more than 3,000 m above sea level. Some types, generally dragonflies, are strong aviators and wide ranges. Some other types have specific habitats and narrow living areas. Needle dragonflies usually fly weakly, and rarely go far to another place, this is consistent with the explanation above in this post.

So some explanations about dragonflies that are often around our homes, maybe you can see them every day. That is all and thank you.
