In this world there are millions of species of animals which are very interesting to see, some of which are around us without us knowing it exists, because of their small size and it is difficult to see them from a great distance, therefore I will try to share some pictures unique insect that I got

There are two types of insects that I will share, and the first is nomia which is a species of bee and I found them in the backyard in the afternoon

Nomia has several differences from other bees in general, they have a smaller body size, and make nests on the ground, and very rarely do I see this type of small bee living in groups like other honey bees

Apart from that, they also have a variety of colors, depending on their gender, and the average color on nomia is a bright and shiny color.

Apart from that, nomias are also a little easy to approach, they don't sting as long as we don't try to touch them, and it seems they also produce honey that can be consumed, but I can't be sure about that, because I have never seen their hives.

The afternoon is the right time to look for nomia, especially in the rainy season like today, they will leave the nest to find food and dry their wings on the grass

The next insect is a type of needle dragonfly, which has a very beautiful color, all parts of its body have a shiny color and have the Latin name Rhinocypha

This dragonfly is a type of dragonfly that has a native habitat in the interior of the forest, they like swamps or rivers, and cannot be found in urban areas at all, I say this, because I have found this type of dragonfly several times in mountainous areas, and the photo above I got while visiting one of the waterfalls in my area,

They have a slightly larger size compared to other needle dragonflies, and the colors also vary, depending on the sex, there are several dragonfly colors that I saw there, but unfortunately not many pictures I managed to get, slippery rocks are the main reason I'm not too brave to photograph this dragonfly

According to the sources I got, the above is a type of female dragonfly, she has a blue color on her body, while the male has a green color, you can find out on the internet to make sure

That's all for now, thanks and see you soon
