Good morning steemian friends, happy activity, on this beautiful morning I want to tell you about a dragonfly.

Previously we have to know what is the meaning of the dragonfly. Dragonflies are one of the insects that we often see in certain places like the park or around the house. Dragonflies also experience metamorphosis in their lifetime. The difference is, butterfly insects have perfect metamorphosis, whereas the dragonfly does not, or just imperfect metamorphosis. Starting from the eggs then become the larvae and eventually become the adult dragonfly that can fly beautifully.

In everyday life, we often see dragonflies, sometimes dragonfly standing on the grass and some are standing on the walls of the house and look very beautiful. Although it looks very beautiful, the dragonfly is actually a ferocious insect. Since hatching from eggs, they are carnivores who like to eat other animals.

At the time of the larvae, they eat plankton, small fish, and other larvae. As their wings begin to grow, the young dragonfly has a special body part around its head that serves as a stick to make it easier to catch small fish. In adulthood, dragonflies are a natural predator of mosquitoes, so that a large population of dragonfly can be an effective controller in overcoming the spread of mosquitoes in a place.

And steemian friends must know also about the uniqueness that is on the dragonfly. One of the most unique and exciting things on the dragonfly is the shape of his eyes. This insect has a large eye with thousands of lenses that are like the bees. With big eyes and these sides, the dragonfly can see in all directions. This is what makes us a bit difficult when wanting to catch this animal even from behind it though.
