Why was the knight afraid of the bug?
Because it was a dragonfly!
Interesting Fact: Dragonflies were some of the first winged insects to evolve, some 300 million years ago. Modern dragonflies have wingspans of only two to five inches, but fossil dragonflies have been found with wingspans of up to two feet.
