Dragonflies

This summer there were more than ever many butterflies and dragonflies. They are not so easy to catch in the lens.
It is surprising that such seemingly fragile insects like dragonflies, fly rather quickly, can reach speeds of up to 57 km / h. while doing up to 30 strokes wings per second.

Dragonfly is agile and fast predator, small insects can catch on the fly. It is hard to imagine that a dragonfly eats up to 40 flies a day.

In addition to flies, dragonflies love to eat mosquitoes, midges and other small flying insects.
