The Truth About Dragonflies 

This guy makes me feel 5 years old and full of innocence and wonder

"Is it a fish? "

Mans about to cure my insect phobias just by being super gentle and calming

I really like the way he speaks to us like we're children, as well as the little piano noises that play in the background, brings me back to when i was a kid watching similar educational videos!

i think it’s cute we have a dragonfly and a damselfly, it’d make a great children’s story book about rescuing a damsel from a dragon

Please never change your sound effects they have me hooked and relaxed

i suffer from severe C/PTSD due trauma i endured as a child. i used to love dragonflies, but the person who harmed me also loved them, and had things with them on it everywhere, so i eventually learned to "hate" them, because i associated them with her. i don't know why, but this video made me feel the same way i did before... everything. i remembered the first time i ever had a dragonfly land on me. i haven't remembered much of the good parts from that time in a good, long while. i haven't felt the same wonder i once held for the world for even longer. thank you for giving me hope that things can always get better, and that humans always have the ability to learn, grow, and change for the better. i really like this video! thank you for making it!

Never in my life have i been explained something in such a soothing manner

Why does he sound like he’s on sesame street.

This video heals my inner child, feel like I am watching those educational videos for little kids and captures that sense of wonder!

*Bro, it feels like I'm watching blue clues as a innocent naive child again...*

not sure why, but i cried a little watching this! i really liked the tones and jingles in the short, as well as the way you let the viewer take in the information slowly! awesome!

There’s something so whimsical and calm about this video. I can’t articulate it. I love you so much

I love the way he explains it, instead of just blurting information like he's high on cocaine.

I like this guy. He talks to us like we're children on his classroom.

As a former kid who loved catching damselflies and labeling them as "dragonflies" because the dragonflies are harder to catch, this brings back so much memories..

It's not a dragonfly. It's a dragonrun.

Whe I was a kid I thought that the Damselfly was the baby version of the Dragon fly. 😅

This just gave me a huge nostalgia hit. This is the only thing I actually knew, because when I was really young in my old garden we had HUGE amounts of beautiful damsel flies in the garden (mostly in a specific area as well) and you could watch the local dragonflies which were so much bigger and so majestic hunt the damselflies. Thank you for posting this video :)

I always thought it's a baby dragonfly

These sound effects remind me of watching PBS shows as a kid. I love it

Dragonflies are the most efficient predators in the world

These videos remind me so much of Mr. Rogers and other shows I watched as a kid, the same shows that drove me to become a Biologist. I hope these videos will continue to educate today's youth for years to come. Thank you.

Oh I really love the little background piano hints..it adds to learning

I absolutely love the new addition of piano and calming, euphoric instrumentals. Really makes you want to learn and adds to the amazement.

Animal Crossing taught me about this one! Damselfly are weird

I used to think those were baby dragonflies my whole entire life😭

This music makes me feel like he’s going to ask me “Can you say Dragon Fly?”

Fun fact, in Spanish the damselfly is called "hell's horse" literally translated

Animal crossing taught me this one I caught a damselfly! Now it’s a damselfly in distress!

This reminds me of those baby shows you would put on for your child to fall asleep to because of its calming melody and tone

I love your videos so much! The slow-paced content feels like a much needed break from all of the videos out there that are just quickly throwing random things at you

The voice over, the piano music, the visuals. This is the content I need to enjoy my tea and Sunday morning too.

Ya really gotta hit me with those soft piano notes, and throw me back to my childhood to when I was watching educational shows.

Damselflies are really pretty! I love the blue color!

Quite the damsel in the distress

His voice is so calming and nice to listen to

Theres something so gentle about this that makes me commit the information to my memory. Like a kindergarten teacher gently telling me how to spell penguin or something.

When I was little I used to think damselfly as newborns of dragonflies. 😂

Immediately went “Oh hey a damselfly!” I knew that obscure knowledge would be useful* one day *definitions of useful being twisted a bit

I've always called that a needle dragonfly since it's slimmer unlike the big dragonflies. 🤣

This sounds like he's reading a kids' storybook in a kids' show.

The Judge has reviewed your case and the jury unanimously sentenced you to a Subscription

I feel like this is something that plays between shows on adult swim at 4am

Animal crossing is the whole reason I recognized a damselfly right away

Your explanation is very calming

I already knew that damselflies and dragonflies are two separate insects but it was nice for someone to properly explain the differences.

I love damselflies. They remind me of the time I was swimming in a canal, a warm summer’s day, damselflies fluttering to and fro above my head while little fish swam alongside me. It was like something out of a fairytale… …that was until I ended up in some deeper and choppier water, and couldn’t pull myself out and was too exhausted to swim back. Thankfully an old man was walking by and helped me out of the canal, I was panicking and starting to take on water so I’m glad he showed up when he did! Still have a scar on my foot from where my feet got cut up on rocks trying to climb out lol

The audio cues might be my favorite part of these videos

Dragonfly looking straight out of a bugs life

In the Philippines we called it Tutubing Karayom. While the dragonfly is Tutubi

Yeah, there are types of Odonata that look almost identical to the dragon fly, family of zigópteros (Zygoptera) (since I speak Spanish, I had to find the English name of the family), they are also* called devil horses, and other differences on the wings are the patterns, they have a tainted area in the wings, aside from most thing that you have mentioned 🥺💕 I learned about this when I was originally looking for bee information, but I have found an entire digital book about insects in my place where I live, aaaaaaaand my curiosity peek about them

The way I was jumping up and down with anticipation for the reveal because I knew it was a damselfly 😂

I remember catching these damselflies as a kid. If you catch them by their tail, they would bite your hand 😂😂

In France we Call it a « demoiselle » which means « Young lady » and dragonfly are called « libellule » demoiselle are pretty common here and they are pretty easy to deferenciate with dragonfly

damselfly is easy to catch and it's so cute 😍🩵

Where does the cylinder go? You guessed it! The square hole!

The dragonfly lowkey look like it got a beard and a mustache with a tongue sticking out.

This is therapeutic bro

I learned this when trying to paint one for my mom. I was like "mom do YOU know the DIFFERENCE between these??? Which one is the one you like???"

There something about the background music and his voice that makes it relaxing

Don't know why this was on my feed, but I adore this. Knew that it was a damselfly immediately LMAO

Dragonfly ❌ Damselfly ❌ Helicopter ✅✅💀😂😂

They are both beautiful

We use to have a bunch of sel flies at my gramma's and you hear her all day banging around holler about the damsel flies getting in her house.

In Bali we called capung memedi 😅

This dude is easily starting to become one of my favorite creators

His voice makes me feel as if I'm a kid again at school watching a documentary.

dragonfly faces are so freaking adorable

Dragon VS Damsel for *FLY* 🕊️

Bro something about this format is EXTREMELY nostalgic and makes me feel like a kid . You're doing something and it's magical

The dragonfly looks fed up

I feel like being a child and watching a children’s show all over again, I like this.

When he paused before saying Dragonfly the first time I was like "thats a damselfly!" And then i thought i was getting gaslit 😂

As soon as i saw it my first thought was "that's a damselfly!"

so I’ve been lied to myself as a child, thinking those were dragon flies 💀

These are basically Helicopters created by nature...🌿🍃

Why does this feel like a Mr Rodgers Neighborhood thing?! Oh wait... The chill toned calming voice... The little bit of piano between statements... Educational without being stressful... That's why. Lol Love it!

When I walk outside…thay are all dragonflies from where I’m standing 😂

This feels low-key like an childrens show but for adults

I love his voice it’s so soothing 😅 Im actually invested in the animals he discusses❤

Big eyed insect: 👀 👄 Small eyed insect: 👁 👁 👄

i used to feed the damselfly to my newly caught dragonfly and its always starts with the head.

In the end, both ended with a 'Ly'

First wasps and now dragonflies? Bro flies are literally the doppelgängers of the insect world

Love the way he talks to us like little children full of wonder. Like some blues clues episode i feel comfort

That fly looked definitely distressed 🤣🤣

So, after all these years, the insects that i catch with my hands are Damselfly...

When i was a child i used to catch a lot of damselfly thinking it was dragonfly baby 😆

“Damsel in distress” so is this where the phrase came from?

The way he talks paired with the music makes me feel like I'm a kid watching reading rainbow again.

Idk why but his entire content makes me think of Dora tye explorer but for adults. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

This made me wander the name of this creature more than I worry about my college grades

the way it just changed to the front view of the face gave me such a jump scare both times 💀

these kinds of videos boutta cure my sociopathy lmao.

Dragonfly:I dont remember having a twin

Kerri Colby - “A DRAGGIN FLY?”

I used to think damselflies are baby dragonfly 🙂

"Alright, now everybody get ready for nap time"

I used to think that dragonflies' ancestors were extinct dragons lol
