Beautiful Dragonfly

Hello my steemit friends.

Today I will post about the dragonfly.
I found this dragonfly in hinngap slammed a dried tree.
Some photos I got, I took with my smartphone. To clarify this photo detail of the dragonfly, I added a macro lens on the smartphone. I was lucky to get some very close shots. Usually with this close shooting distance he will feel disturbed and fly away.

Below I share some macro photos and some reviews about dragonfly.

Dragonflies are a group of insects belonging to the Odonata order. Usually they live not far from the location of stagnant water or a little heavy, because it is used for laying places. The age of the dragonfly from the period of egg-laying to death usually ranges from 6 months to 6 years.
Dragonfly has a great flying ability. Dragonfly have compound eyes with almost 360 degrees of view, and can fly backwards.
Adult dragonfly do not disrupt agriculture or are considered pests.
