Look at me smile// mirame sonreír

Today I will talk about this curious insect called Coenagrion scitulum is a species of small size, with the head extended to the sides, large and separated eyes, the female and the male show different characteristics both in color and size.

Hoy hablaré de este curioso insecto llamado Coenagrion scitulum es una especie de tamaño pequeño, con la cabeza alargada hacia los lados, ojos grandes y separados, la hembra y macho muestras características diferentes tanto en coloración como tamaño.



This photographs are of a male since they are a paler color than the female and the dark stripes are more opaque,What seems curious to me about this beautiful insect is that in certain images it seems to smile, but this is it because keeps it with its mouth open to catch tiny insects that fly between the plants such as mosquitoes.

Las siguientes fotografías son de un macho ya que son de un color más pálido que la hembra y las rayas oscuras son más opacas, lo que me parece curioso de este bello insecto es que en ciertas imágenes pareciera sonreir, esto es porqué mantiene con la boca abierta para sobre el vuelo atrapar insector diminutos que vuelan entre las plantas tales como mosquitos.



They generally live in tropical climates and near a water source; In this case, my garden is visited by these insects because it has a small pile of water for birds to quench their thirst.

Ellos en general viven en climas tropicales y cerca de una fuente de agua; en este caso mi jardín es muy visitado por estos insectos ya que cuenta con una pequeña pila de agua puesta para que aves calmen su sed.



The predators of the coenagrion scitulum are dragonflies of a larger size, some birds and the praying mantis; That said this of ​​passage at some point I will share with all your the images of a dragonfly hunted by a praying Mantis, something, sad but the food chain is like that.

20200221_113659-01-01.jpeg

Los depredadores de los coenagrion scitulum son libelulas de un tamaño mayor, algunas aves y las Mantis religiosas; que dicho sea de paso en algún momento compartiré con todos imágenes de una libélula cazada por una Mantis religiosa, algo triste pero es así la cadena alimenticia.



Without further arguing for the moment I say goodbye but not before thanking you in advance for the time you took to read my publication and I hope you liked it. See you soon

Sin más que argumentar por el momento me despido no sin antes agradecer de antemano el tiempo que tomaste para leer mi publicación y espero haya sido de tu agrado.

Small and intriguing looks like body of dragonfly yet a face that more resembles the mantis.

I still don't understand that cross posting, I think I should learn more about this and how beneficial it could be for the original author.

I used re-post to share your content into a specific community where your posts will be with people who love nature. As far as I am aware 90% earnings go to the author (yourself), 5% goes to the new community and 5% earnings goes to the person re-posting (me). Hope this helps, you do not lose earnings as the post in now residing in two places.

You post about nature, it would be very beneficial to join #DNA they added the links in your comments section. Read the requirements and have a wonderful day.

Hello! Thank you 😊
Yes, some are very difficult, but others are very calm, although having the object to be photographed so small, the task becomes laborious.

Wow! You took these close-up photos with a smart phone @lourdeshd6? Impressive! And you have provided a lot of info about a very interesting looking creature. With those eyes, doesn't look like they miss much of anything!

Thank you for sharing your fine work with the PHC Community. Have a great day!

There`s something about dragonflies that makes them so gracious. Maybe the fairy type wings and the hypnotic eyes...

Hello Maria
I do not use any macro lens, it is only my 13 megapixel camera on my smartphone, I really get quite close and they usually cooperate a lot.

Lovely shots my friend and over here we call them "Damselflies"
Damselflies are not Dragonflies, but they belong to the same order of insects titled "Odonata".
In the "Donata" order there are two sub orders.
Damselflies=Zygoptera and Dragonflies=Anisoptera

"Odonata" means "toothed jaw" in Greek.
Blessings to you!

Excellent information Sir Stephen! I never heard of damselflies before. The name sounds so "proper," as though one should take a bow or curtsey when encountering them.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge of the subject with us! Blessings! @papilloncharity💫

My pleasure Lady Nina and I only know them because I trained myself as a new photographer snapping dragonflies.

Only afterwards did I find out that the guy that I asked about photography methods was making a joke, as he thought dragonflies were impossible to get. And I have gotten many of them and also damselflies.

Glad that I did as it was good for me!
Blessings!
