Survey on Odonata - Kajang 2

There is a nice pond at Kajang 2, Selangor. The pond is located next to Kajang 2 Villas. It looks like the pond is well managed by the MKH Developer. The pond is open to public. A walk path is available around the pond for public to have a nice walk. The pond also attracts fishing hobbyists to do their fishing activity there. I did an Odonata survey at the pond on 4 January 2025. A total of 14 species of Odonata were recorded - 3 are damselflies and 11 are dragonflies.
