Hello Guys ... How are you today ?


And how are you communities

If it is observed, it turns out that the dragonfly has several characters that are not silent in taking advantage of the time to be active, it is seen not only from its movement, either suddenly or slowly. The silence of a dragonfly has meaning in preparing a program that often makes us continue to observe it

When... dan. How's the story


(Macrodiplax cora)

Let's see the review briefly and simply...

First of all, I want to say that the dragonfly seen in the picture in this article is one of the dragonflies that often dominates an area that is often visited by people who love the coast. Incidentally, in this coastal area there is a wild park that is almost dry because of the influence of tidal inundation that controls a shore (beach lip), and here is precisely one of the nests of the Macrodiplax Cora dragonfly (as scientists call it).

Finding it here is very easy for people who want to see it up close. Wherever the path looks for food, it will eventually return to its nest (location above). Especially when it's late, each of them often goes home and lands on each dry branch which naturally has become his regular subscription. From my point of view, it looks like they have distributed several locations as their main nests (mainly as resting locations) when it is almost night time.

Seeing their condition when they enter the time area before sunset, each of the dragonfly families will come and stay here, especially in this location. Thus, it can be confirmed by eye sight (not scientific) that the dragonfly will stop its daily activities when it enters the area before sunset. So when entering the night all routine activities will be stopped.

If so, why is it also seen that some dragonflies are still active at night?

The question is not a finding that contradicts the statement above, but the condition is caused by some dragonflies not having a way home or trying to make their way home. Of course, this situation occurs for several reasons. Such as :

  1. Avoiding the predators who often block the way home so that efforts to save themselves are disrupted, so that the direction you want to go will be reversed, in simple terms it can be said that the real goal is to the west, so with this incident you have to turn from the previous direction. So that he gets lost

  2. Experiencing obstacles in the form of accidents that are not caused by the influence of transparent goods originating from human homes or other causes. So it doesn't happen because of unfavorable conditions.

  3. Deceived by the target of prey, sometimes insects that often make it tempted (food objects) are even more powerful in trapping the predator

  4. There are several natural conditions that can prevent them from getting back to the main nest, and several other important things that can make them accept problems on their way home.

Obstacles or obstacles that have occurred as mentioned above, are obstacles that are often experienced by wandering dragonflies (in search of food and others). So you see them enter the room of your house that has lights as lighting, the reason is very reasonable, because they think that the lights as lighting are considered as daylight.

Is that possible, to the dragonfly?

Although almost 90% of dragonflies have accurate abilities in predicting a situation, natural conditions either occur naturally or are influenced by human actions also often experience errors in predicting a habit. Because dragonflies rely on instincts not reason (belong to humans not animals), those instincts can sometimes be wrong from the influence or impact of today's technological sophistication. In general, every animal knows the atmosphere of the evening based on the view of nature itself. They consider the time of day based on the typical illumination of sunlight. While their view is that white light (bright) is considered as daylight, but they do not know that any lighting created by human efforts such as lamplight is considered daylight. So they often get lost in the houses of special people in bright areas. When they see a light coming from a light bulb, their instinctual curiosity is deceived so they often have accidents around the heat of a light bulb.

If so, then what do dragonflies do when perched on a branch (twig) of wood?

That question, you can answer yourself, why!

Because it is often seen from every condition at that time. Basically a dragonfly will continue to carry out its routine activities, of course it can be seen from its life motto such as :

  1. Will always look for and eat everything that becomes their main feed.
  2. Will sleep (rest) when the stomach is full. Even so, instinctively, it still observes every movement of the prey, which is visible in its observation, so it will return to hunting
    3.carry out a common habit of mate, in developing their offspring.

If it is concluded, their life cannot be separated from 3 things, namely eating, sleeping, and marrying. Well, this is where it is different from creatures who have reason like humans, namely having reason, then he will add one more thing, namely looking for the creator, whether in the realm of religion or not.

In short, based on the information above, the dragonfly is never silent during the day, either by its body or by its instincts. They will continue to strive while remaining silent while on each branch, instinctively will continue to control every movement of other objects. This is very necessary for every dragonfly, both in dealing with prey or the predator for himself.

They are very good at dragonflies, who are constantly on the lookout for every move. Humans say it is an act of caution in trapping opponents as predators or avoiding predators that trap themselves.

This extraordinary attitude, which is possessed by dragonflies, makes them fall into the category of reliable and powerful insects. His greatness can be seen from his daily activities (as mentioned above).

The reliable attitude of every dragonfly on this planet earth is something that other insects are very afraid of, not only them, including small spiders always anticipate the dragonfly, because we see dragonflies are also able to prey on small spiders that are in the air, his nest (trap net), here he looks great, because he is able to predict that he will not get caught in a spider's web when he manages to reach the spider's small body when it is preyed on.

They are amazing, and so amazing. While preparing everything to be done. Before he hunts first prepares a way out so as not to get trapped.

What do you think when you see a dragonfly perched on one of its favorite branches. If you have experience in this matter, please comment in the column provided. Hopefully this article can add to your scientific insight, especially in the dragonfly character. Thank you very much.
