Beware of DRAGONfly!

DISCLAIMER - Don't even think of looking at these pictures if you don't like dragonflies! It's dangerous! They can change your mind ;)

 

Dragons are just cool... Not sure about flies... But... when they collaborate, the result is astonishing - dragonflies! Amazing creature with crazy features ;)

Aren't they wonderful? So elegant and inaccessible... Never let anyone get close, but always ready to show up and knock the spectators off their feet. I don't know about you... but I always enjoyed watching those stringers fly back and forth and change direction with the precision of cruise missiles.

Dragonflies are usually shy and skittish, and won't let strangers get too close. But... sometimes it's too nice and too cozy to sit on a small branch, and dragonflies let you almost touch them...

 

Unlike dragonflies, damselflies don't mind. They mostly let you get as close as you wish, but once they decide to show that you've gotten too close, they will fly away, make a circle and land again on the same branch (especially if it is the only one available).

BTW, did you know, the dragonflies are the most successful predator in the world with the success rate of 95%?
