A big green dragonfly grabbed a horsefly out of the air right in front of me. He landed on my leg to eat it. I carefully walked to get my camera and he stayed on. You can't hear it on the video because of the wind in the mic but I could hear the crunching as he chowed down. Anything that eats horseflies and mosquitoes is a friend of mine. A perfect little flying, killing, eating machine and beautiful too. This was by Thompson, Manitoba. In vid 1 you can see him starting out with the whole horsefly and shoving it into his mandables headfirst.

  • I saw a dragonfly intercept one of these in midair. Dragonflies are badass!

  • Well, it makes sense that dragonflies aren't afraid of us. Our skin is good bait for the creatures that dragonflies call as their meal.

  • I think the dragonfly landed on your leg to make a deal. You let it in your house, and it will kill every single fly in there. (Just a joke don't do that)

  • @Gurgleschlortz Still, it's pretty creepy when they fly. And it would kinda creep me out if one bit me.
