Post 6 – Dragonfly
Dragonflies are insects which are “unequal-winged”
because the back wings are broader than the front
wings. In Great Britain and Ireland there are about
30 species. The adult fly has multi-lensed eyes, two
pairs of transparent wings and a long slender body.
Your Dragonfly
Question:
How many wings does a Dragonfly have? How do you know you have
not seen their close relatives, ‘damselflies’; what differentiates them?
