What are facts about dragonflies please do not talk about them being related to dragons?
Dragonflies have been around 300 million years. One prehistoric fossil had a wingspan of 2 1/2 feet! Today, the largest dragonfly is found in Costa Rica. It has a wingspan of 7 1/2 inches. * Dragonfly eyes contain up to 30,000 individual lenses. Human eyes only have one. * They have two sets of wings. They don't have to beat their wings in unison like other insects do. Their front wings can be going up while their backs ones are going down. * They only flap their wings at about 30 beats per second (bps) compared to a bee's 300 bps. * Excellent and strong fliers, they can loop-the-loop, hover, and fly backwards. * An Australian variety has been clocked at 36 miles per hour. * Dragonfly nymphs (the first stage after hatching) live in the water for about a year. * While underwater they eat mosquito nymphs, tiny fish, and pollywogs. When they have matured to airborne insects, they catch mosquitoes and gnats in mid-air before devouring them. * After leaving the water and becoming flying insects, they only live for about a month. * Their natural predators are birds.

What is difference between Bug dragonfly from firefly?
Dragonflies come out during the day and have long (somewhat stick-like) bodies, with four wings which stick out perpendicular to their bodies and cannot fold over their backs (unlike damselflies, which are very similar to dragonflies but smaller and with foldable wings). Fireflies are nocturnal, and have a body very similar to a beetle's. They only have two wings, which fold under a hard protective shell when they are not flying, and the lower section of their bodies is bioluminescent. Google image search both insects for a clearer understanding of their differences.

Only a few species of dragonfly do hibernate as adults. The winter damsels hibernate in heathland and will start reproducing as soon as nice weather sets in at march or april.
Other dragonfly will be present as eggs (Spreadwings) or in nymph stages. The eggs are sometimes in plants along the side of the water, even tree branches (Western Willow Spreadwing). The Spreadwings have an apparatus to drill holes in plants to put there eggs there. Most dragonflies lay eggs in the water or just at the shore mostly hidden in the vegetation. Soon a nymph emerges and it lives as an aquatic predator until the next year mostly. The nymphs crawl out of the water and in most cases climb in reeds where they attach themselves with crossed feet. They emerge from their last nymph skin and pump up their wings and abdomen with air.
