Golden Insects - Dragonfly, Butterfly and Hoverfly
The Garden is expanding and the flies are coming too: Dragonfly, Butterfly & Hoverfly 🦋
Dragonflies are fast-flying, four-winged insects with long bodies and enormous eyes. The adult dragonfly has the biggest eyes in the insect world and they are capable of detecting movement up to 15m away!
The swallowtail is Britain's largest and most exotic butterfly. Its name refers to the extensions on the hind-wings which look rather like a swallow's tail. These 'tails' and false 'eyes' on the hind-wing mimic the head and antennae of the butterfly. This confuses birds as to the true head of their prey and gives the swallowtail a better chance of escaping. Sadly, this beautiful butterfly is extremely rare in Britain.
Hoverflies are useful insects, whose larvae feed on aphids, and normally the adults feed on pollen, and so pollinate flowers.
