Drawing Notes:
Adam’s dragonfly is resting with its wings spread horizontally as most dragonflies do naturally. It has two narrow pairs of intricately veined, membranous wings that are generally transparent. The front and rear wing pairs are always shaped differently unless it is a damselfly.
Fun Facts:
For some people, dragonflies are magical.
There are more than 5,000 species of dragonflies.
Dragonflies can hover like helicopters and they can fly straight up and down.
If a dragonfly cannot fly, it will starve because dragonflies only eat prey they catch while flying.

Marie’s drawing notes:
Now the bird is completed, sitting on a branch, with its tail balancing it. This picture can be colored red for a cardinal, if you like, or any other color that suits your favorite bird. It is a pretty picture and shows details of the bird’s wing, and his delicate tail. You can be more creative about the branch, he is perched upon, but we wanted to place emphasis on the shape and style of the bird itself.
Drawing Notes:
To make the original drawing fit on our sheets, nine hyphens were removed from the second strip of hyphens in row 8 and row 9.
