On the last day of summer camp, explorers got to see something really special...a dragonfly emerged from the pond in its nymph stage and became an adult! The lifespan of a dragonfly is more than a year, but very little of that time is actually spent in the adult stage - only about two months. For most of their lives, dragonflies live as nymphs in lakes or ponds and look like tiny aliens without any wings. It is in the water where their metamorphosis begins - without a chrysalis. #PhenologyFriday

I felt very blessed to have witnessed the magical birth of a newly emerged Southern Hawker Dragonfly (Aeshna cyanea) seen in the gardens of the 11th Century haunted Chambercombe Manor in North Devon. The dragonfly has great meaning to many cultures, it is thought of as the messenger who carries prayers to the Spirit World. It's also a symbol of transformation, rebirth and immortality. Although it spends the majority of its life on the bottom of a pond as a larva nymph, it always rises above that

This clip show footage of a Southern Hawker dragonfly (female) filmed over four hours up to taking its first flight. Early July, West Somerset (‪🔊‬ on for narration). | Langbein Wildlife

Dragonflies may look delicate, but their life cycle is pure power. Their nymph stage happens underwater, where they hunt like tiny predators and grow stronger with every molt. When they finally emerge, they leave behind their exoskeleton as a reminder of their transformation. Nature’s engineering at its finest. #dragonfly #nymph #naturefacts #transformation #wildlife #waterlife #fblifestyle #DragonflyWisdom #dragonfly #dragonflyspirit #naturelovers | Dragonfly lovers
