Some fun facts on dragonfly that might surprise you

 

Dragonflies spent most of their lives underwater.

 

Adult dragonflies only live up to 6 months, they end up spending more time of their lives in water than the air.

 

Dragonflies lay their eggs in water. Upon hatching, the larva will remain aquatic for 2 to 5 years depending on the species.

 

During this stage, they would breathe using their gills.

 

Dragonfly nymphs eat any underwater creature smaller than them.

 

Some bigger species of dragonfly can even hunt and eat small fish as larvae.

 

After the larva stage, they would crawl out of the water with the dragonfly’s exoskeleton cracking open to release its abdomen.

 

During this period, its four wings will start to emerge, drying and solidifying within the next several days.

 

The wings of the dragonfly provide superior stability with high load-bearing capacity as it flies, glides, and hovers.

 

Their wings are made of membranes and veins with a complex design that provides excellent versatility, agility as well as performing maneuverable fliers.

 

Just a single dragonfly can eat up to 100 mosquitoes per day.

 

Having two or more dragonflies in the garden or near the house would certainly slow down the mosquito’s population.

 

Adult dragonflies only eat when they are flying.

 

Hence if they are injured and cannot fly, they will starve to death.

Trying to see the stars through the new pollution

Think that I'm the problem, honey, I'm the solution

Maybe all the chaos is for your amusement

Here to tell you something that you don't know

Just a bowl full of beads, but what pretty colors. I wonder what I can make with them...

Sunset over Stromness harbour

The top floor fills with shadows of palm trees and gentle beams that bounce off the flakes of dust rising from abandoned floors and dusted furniture. Grandeur’s of memories of elegance that once was. Highlighted flakes of dust waiting to settle for the night, when the memories come to life and elegance lives again; as the haunted music of crashing waves and flamingo chirps and squawks fill the halls. Outside the peacocks watch guard over the gardens that once were and the flamingos who wonder the isolated grounds.
