Dragonflies and damselflies (Odonata) are a group of aesthetic aquatic insects. Over 420 species of Odonata have been recorded for Malaysia (Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah and Sarawak). They are waiting for me to explore.

Survey of Odonata at Precinct 2, Kajang 2
There is a nice resident park at Precinct 2, Bandar Kajang 2, Kajang. The park has a nice pond well management by the developer of township of Precinct 2 Kajang 2. A jogging track is constructed aroung the pond. Apart from that, some exercise devices are also seen at one spot at the park. I did a quick Odonata survey at the pond on 2 September 2025 in the late morning. A total of nine species of Odonata were recorded - one was damselflies and eight were dragonflies. They were just very common pond species.
