Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: A female Emperor dragonfly laying her eggs in a water course on Coward's Marsh, Christchurch, Dorset. It's a genuine privilege to witness these stunning creatures go about their lives. Dragonflies have seen it all. They were already ancient when the dinosaurs appeared -- and if the Silurian hypothesis is correct, they'll probably be here long after we've gone. Be kind to dragonflies and damselflies, for not only are most beautiful to look at, but they also eat many of the biting flies and mosquitoes that torment us. |
