Description
Orange Dragonfly (Neon Skimmer) holding onto the end of a dead branch.
A dragonfly is an insect belonging to the order Odonata, suborder Anisoptera, because the hindwing is broader than the forewing. The dragonfly is agile in-flight and able to move in all six directions, at up to 45 miles per hour. It can hover like a helicopter, yet fly backwards like a hummingbird, fly straight up, down, or to either side. Adult dragonflies are characterized by large multifaceted eyes, two pairs of strong transparent wings, sometimes with colored patches, and an elongated body. Dragonflies are agile fliers while damselflies have a weaker, fluttery flight. Many dragonflies have brilliant iridescent or metallic colors making them conspicuous in flight. An adult dragonfly eye has nearly 24,000 ommatidia (cluster of photoreceptor cells surrounded by support cells and pigment cells).
