19. Amazing!

Yesterday I had two dragonflies playing in front of me. They were like little helicopters! It was quite clear they were playing, as one would buzz the other and then swoop and the other would come back and buzz him/her. It was the most magical moment of the day!

I love dragonflies anyway.

Don't you think the pic in the OP looks like an alien?

Also, look at the praying mantis one. According to some alien reports, there is a praying mantis type alien, too.
