The Antlion

An Antlion is a dragonfly larva.

To eat he digs a hole in the sand and then waits for insects to come in. After they fall in and struggle to climb out, the antlion snaps them up. When it becomes a nymph it also eats tadpoles.

But when the frog grows up, it eats the dragonfly.

I love dragonflies because they land on my finger when I stand still.
