This large white butterfly was photographed at butterfly world in edinburgh, home to many foreign species.
I didn't rush to try and catch these dragonflies with my camera right away, but instead observed them for a few minutes. It turns out they fly around bodies of water for short periods of time and then return to the same spot. For this one in the picture I positioned myself near its favorite spot and had my camera ready, and sure enough it returned to take a break on this same plant.
Coleoptera ( /koʊliːˈɒptərə/) is an order of insects commonly called beetles. The word "coleoptera" is from the Greek κολεός, koleos, meaning "sheath"; and πτερόν, pteron, meaning "wing", thus "sheathed wing". The reason for the name is that most beetles have two pairs of wings, the front pair, the "elytra", being hardened and thickened into a sheath-like, or shell-like, protection for the rear pair, and for the rear part of the beetle's body. The superficial consistency of most beetles' morphology, in particular their possession of elytra, has long suggested that the Coleoptera are monophyletic, but there is growing evidence that this is unjustified, there being arguments for example, in favour of allocating the current suborder Adephaga their own order, or very likely even more than one.

Bumblebees of the same species come in very different sizes. On the left is a small worker female, on the right a large and rather plump male, both of the Buff-tailed bumblebee species.
