A dragonfly has a life span of more than a year, but very little of that life is actually as an adult dragonfly. There are three stages of the dragonfly life cycle, the egg, the nymph, and the adult dragonfly. Most of the lifecycle of a dragonfly is lived out in the nymph stage and you don‟t see them at all, unless you are swimming underwater in a lake or pond with your eyes opened, of course. The Egg Stage a male and a female dragonfly will mate while they are flying in the air. After two dragonflies mate, the female dragonfly will lay her eggs on a plant in the water, or if she can‟t find a suitable plant she will just drop them into the water. Dragonfly nymphs live in the water while they grow and develop into dragonflies. This portion of the dragon fly life cycle can take up to four years to complete, and if the nymph cycle is completed in the beginning of the winter time, it will remain in the water until spring when it is warm enough to come out. Dragonfly nymphs live in ponds or marshy areas because the waters are calmer than in a stream or river. Sometimes they can be found in the calmer backwaters of rivers, too.
