- Hello everyone!!!
- I am an aquatic insect. I can fly and fly.
- Surprisingly, I can fly very fast.
- Don’t fear. I won’t harm you.
- Can you guess me?
- Yes, I am the Dragonfly.
- You can see me everywhere in the world.
- I am long and thin. My color is red or blue or green.
- There are some stripes like black markings on me.
- Kids like you, try to catch me. I will fly fast.
- To say, I have four large transparent wings. Look at it.
- It’s very skinny and shiny in the sunlight when I fly.
- This helps me to fly very fast.
- I am a harmless insect. I do not bite or sting.
- Instead, I help you people by eating mosquitoes.
- First, I have two big compound eyes and two small antennae. This helps me to sense whatever happens around me.
- Next, I have good eyesight which helps me to see other flying insects. So, I hunt them while I fly.
- Thirdly, I have three pairs of legs and they are covered with spines. They are used to perch on tree branches instead of for walking.
- Finally, my mouth with a sharp jaw helps in grabbing and eating other bugs.
- Amazingly, you know, I have a technique. When I fly, I hold my legs together, forming a basket in which to capture insects. I eat the captured insects while I fly.
- You can see me near streams, ponds, lakes, rivers and even waterfalls.
- I can do zigzag, turn and even fly backwards. I can also fly at a speed of 40 to 60 miles per hour.
- Birds and frogs try to eat me, if they can catch me. But, I am very fast. Usually I escape from them.
- Come and fly like me. Enjoy the sky.
- Learn from me not to harm others.
- Thank you.
