Dragonflies are beautiful animals. Dragonflies always perched on the open wings or stretched sideways. Dragonflies are also reliable pilots and have a wide range of roaming areas for the size of insects. The unique dragonfly's wing structure, making it has the ability to fly float in a fixed position in the air and land smoothly where it wants to be.

These insects are rarely far from water, which is where they lay their eggs and spend their pre-adult days. Dragonflies can be found starting from the beach to an altitude of more than 3,000 m asl.
Dragonflies are animals Ovipar or animals that breed by laying eggs. Dragonflies put their eggs in a safe place in the water, usually in the strands of tumbuan leaf water. Dragonflies just want to put the eggs in the waters are still clean and free of pollution. This makes the existence of Dragonflies are often used as bioindicators to determine the quality of water in a region.

Dragonflies are a faithful animal. After the marriage and the Dragonflies contain eggs, the male Dragonflies will always follow him wherever he goes. When the female dragonfly wants to lay its eggs, it is a very dangerous moment for the salvation of his soul. As he concentrates on removing his eggs, he can lose his vigilance and become an easy target for predators like birds. So to protect it, the male Dragonflies will fly over it so that if there is a targeted predator, then it is he who is eaten instead of the dragonfly.

After the Dragonfly eggs hatch and become Tempayak (dragonfly larvae), it will live and grow in the bottom of the water until it undergoes a metamorphosis into the nymph, and finally comes out of the water as an adult dragonfly with perfect wings ready to fly.

Most of the life cycle of Dragonflies is spent in the form of nymphs, below the surface of the water, using internal gills to breathe. In the phase of becoming Tempayak and Nimfa, Dragonflies live as carnivorous animals are malignant. Large nymphs can even hunt and prey on tadpoles and child fish. After adulthood and able to fly, Dragonflies are only able to live for a maximum of four months.
