Appendix 2
A. A. Pleshakov Green Pages

Page ten on dragonflies
Just...
I once sat by the river. Over the thickets of arrowhead and yellow nodules dragonflies flew. And the guys were swimming nearby. So they got out of the water dried up a bit and ... they suddenly began to hunt dragonflies. Knocked down their shirts, caught hats. I ran to them: “What are you doing ?! Why? ”The guys were surprised:“ Why? So simple ... "

Probably, many will recall a similar case. It's good if the guys hold the dragonfly by the wings and let it go. But it happens that insects are torn off by paws, heads. Or arrange a competition - who will kill more dragonflies.

And dragonflies need to be protected! Why? Yes, simply because they are part of the living world around us, because they are beautiful, and man cannot live without beauty. In addition, we must not forget that, having destroyed a single dragonfly, a person, one can say, sets free hundreds, thousands of mosquitoes and blackflies. And how annoying they are, these mosquitoes and midges! How painful they bite, especially when you are resting on the bank of a river or a pond, get a fish, ride a boat ... And then a dragonfly comes to the rescue. After all, mosquitoes and midges are their main, favorite food.
Big-eyed hunters
Look into the eyes of a dragonfly. Unless, of course, you manage to approach her carefully, sitting on a leaf or a branch. The eyes are not just big. They are huge. They are round and smooth, like the sides of a globe, mysterious, like pearls.

Then the dragonfly takes off. And you will hear the dry rustling of her strong wings, if the dragonfly is large. Or, if you are small, you will not hear anything, but you will see how the wings, when set in motion, will light up, will play in the sun's rays ...

From May to autumn, dragonflies fly over the overgrown banks of rivers and rivulets, ponds and lakes, they hunt along forest edges and glades.

They catch prey with their feet. Their legs are covered with spikes and bristles, in flight they are bent and close together so that a “trapping basket” is obtained. Swift zigzag air - and a mosquito or fly in this "basket". The mosquito dragonfly eats right on the fly. A fly - sitting on a branch, slowly. And then some time resting.

“I have often seen,” wrote the famous German scientist Alfred Brem in the book “Animal Life”, “that the dragonfly turned out to be more agile than me, snatching a moth or other insect from under my nose, which I wanted to catch.”

Observe how a dragonfly-yoke, large, ten centimeters in wingspan, hunts over the forest road. She has her own plot, in which she flies back and forth. He does not allow other dragonflies, especially of the same species, to this area - he is decisively attacking and chasing away! Rocker flies fly, and many other dragonflies are superb. The speed develops up to 50 kilometers per hour and even, as some scientists assert, up to 90.

But there are other dragonflies. Like butterflies, they flit near the water, light, tender. They are not in a hurry, they sit down on the reeds and leaves so delicately as if they know their names: a pretty girl, a beautiful arrow, a graceful arrow.

In female beauties, wings are yellowish, in males - blue. The arrows are smaller and unusually thin - they break, caught by an awkward human hand. Lyutki are also very fragile - they are generally the smallest of our dragonflies.

All these creatures feed on living prey, although they do not go after it, like rockers, in dizzying chases. They collect insects sitting on plants, occasionally catch flying. There are no hunting areas for these dragonflies: both the table and the house, as they say, are found under each sheet.

Patient researchers who studied with cameras, binoculars and stopwatches in their hands hunting habits of various dragonflies, called the large and strong dragonflies pursuers, and beauties, shooters and hatches - gatherers.

There are among the dragonflies and the third group of hunters - the traplayers! Awakened by the morning sun, they begin to fly, looking for a convenient knot or a twig in the forest clearings to sit high all day and look far away. Scrupulous to the extreme: podsteregateli different species choose branches with different angles of inclination, with different thickness, with a certain color! These dragonflies are medium in size, very good flyers. Seeing the prey, they take off, catch it with lightning speed and just as quickly fly back. They sit down at their own bitch, eat and wait again ...

And now a few words about the merits of winged hunters in front of people.

“The flies were so numerous that the air seemed filled with them,” wrote one zoologist at the beginning of our century. But here, he says, dragonflies appeared. First, just a few pieces, then more, more. Two days later, their number became so large that a strong mind was clearly heard in the air from the flapping of countless wings. Dragonflies greedily caught midge. It took another two days - and now not a single midge was noticeable anywhere.

This happens now. Moreover, in Siberia, in some places, people are specifically waiting for the appearance of dragonflies to begin cultivating vegetable gardens along the shores of lakes. Otherwise, it is simply impossible to work - mosquitoes are jammed.

Here they are what you need, these big-eyed hunters!
Life under water
Dragonfly larvae live in water. If it is special, made of durable fabric, with a water net, to rummage at the bottom of some pond or forest lake, it may turn out to be a dragonfly larva itself. Consider it carefully, and after reviewing, we will release it. Yes, the creation is not the most beautiful. Awkward-looking, gray, smeared in silt. Legs long, splayed. Eyes bulging ... However, the brightness and diversity here would be completely out of place - with them and in the mouth of the fish to please not for long.

This larva appears from the egg as a completely crumbs - one and a half to two millimeters long. But in the third year of life, when development comes to an end, it happens to be 5 centimeters at the dragonfly-yoke, and 6 centimeter at the dragonfly-warden! Other, smaller dragonflies have smaller larvae, and they often live only one year.

The future dragonfly does not pursue its prey (of various water larvae, crustaceans, tadpoles), but lies in wait, hiding in an ambush somewhere among the greenery. It catches only moving prey. Enough lightning! And not with their feet, not with their jaws, but with a “mask”. "Mask" - a long, folding lower lip, with hooks on the end. Grabbing their lunch, the larva attracts it to the mouth, and then powerful jaws begin to work. At the usual time, the lip is folded and covers, like a real mask, the lower part of the predator's physiognomy.

True, not all larvae feed on this way. In some species, the lip resembles a scoop, and even with a strainer. These larvae crawl all their life in the mud, extracting everything edible from it, it is clear that they collect not only moving but also fixed prey.

The method of movement in larvae of large dragonflies is very unusual. They eject a stream of ode from their abdomen with a force and, getting a push like a rocket, rush forward, So, as if in great leaps, they swim quickly and easily. Boris Fedorovich Belyshev, a dragonfly researcher, observed a case where a jet from a larva, breaking through a small layer of water, hit the table 60 centimeters from the aquarium in which the larva lived. It is not surprising that, fleeing from the mouth of a fish, a frightened predator usually completely forgets about his rather strong legs, and scampers away, doing nothing but a water jet engine.

Larvae of small dragonflies move differently. They have three leaflets on the back end of the body. These leaves serve as larvae with fins.

That's how the future dragonflies live.

But one fine day a larva is chosen for some reed sticking out of the water to the air, to the sun. Frozen, hanging over the wet abyss ... And so the clothes burst on the back of the larva, and the winged dragonfly is born, which will not return to the water. Figure 25


Dragonflies waiting for help
Dragonflies are very ancient insects. Three hundred million years ago, there were no wasps, no bees, or butterflies on earth. There were no birds and beasts. There were no flowers. But the dragonflies have already flown. Many were enormous - they reached almost a meter in the wingspan!

Now in the whole world about 4500 species of dragonflies are known. Especially a lot of them in hot countries. Even such large and bright ones live there that we never dreamed of. True, the former giants have long since died out - the biggest modern dragonflies reach 19 centimeters in wingspan. However, agree, and this is a lot.

Indeed, it is difficult to even imagine how dragonflies are older than mankind! But what happens to them now is the same as with the overwhelming majority of other animals and plants. Under the onslaught of man, they retreat. In many countries, dragonflies are getting smaller. Dragonflies are especially vulnerable, the larvae of which can live only in clean water bodies - there are almost no clean water bodies left.

Dragonflies deserve respect. And the guys can do a lot for them. Stop, for example, the one who is going to wash a car in a river, a motorcycle: it pollutes the water very much. Do not catch dragonflies, but watch them! Maybe someone will be able to see something that even scientists do not know yet.


Page Eighteenth, about frogs and toads,

which many do not like at all
Their trouble is our fault
It is difficult to even understand why frogs and toads still live on earth. Of course, in the modern world there are few animals that would live well: a person oppresses everyone, and if he loves someone, he doesn’t necessarily cherish. But frogs and toads ...

In an old book about toads it is written like this: “Toad is a disgusting animal ... In July, toads are punctured with a sharp stick with their heads or necks and dried in the air for both indoor and outdoor use.” Yes, hardly toads would have liked this book. They liked even less when they were punctured on a stick and dried. But what could they do if people, despising toads, at the same time considered them for some reason to be a good remedy for many diseases ?!

The dead toad was used as medicine. And terrible properties were attributed to the living: terribly poisonous, it is as if by its own breath and even with its gaze can disfigure a person. And moreover, she is a companion of witches, other evil spirits, and a meeting with her promises man only misfortune. It is clear how such meetings ended for the toads. People who believed these fables simply killed innocent animals.

And still their destruction is in full swing. Stupid, meaningless. Many still do not like toads and, on occasion, kill them. And nowadays, some people think that when a person touches a toad, warts appear. What nonsense!

On the frogs, it seems, slandered less than on the toads. However, they also never complained, although frog legs have long been considered in some countries as a delicious dish. And now the frog meat is there much more expensive than the best varieties of fish. Visitors to expensive restaurants do not spare money for an unusual dish. In Italy alone, about 15 million frogs are eaten every year! There are not many frogs left in most Western European countries. Therefore, they are brought from abroad. Especially a lot of frogs are selling India. The total weight of the unfortunate animals caught there annually is 5 thousand tons. And many catchers, in order to make their work easier, tear off the paws right on the spot - from the living frogs!

It is impossible not to recall one more frog disaster. They have become very comfortable and even irreplaceable animals for conducting various experiments. With their completely involuntary help, scientists, especially physicians, have made many important discoveries. In gratitude, two monuments were erected for the frogs - in Paris and in Tokyo.

Well, grateful scientists put monuments to the frogs. But is there any gratitude to these defenseless creatures in the soul of each of us? After all, they died for our health.

And how often the guys are ruining the frogs! They throw stones at them, torment little weak animals, unable to stand up for themselves. Is it possible to?

Let's add to all this the death of frogs and toads on the roads. They fall under the wheels of cars, when in the spring they are sent for breeding to reservoirs, often quite far from wintering grounds. In some countries, in order to save frogs and toads, special “trapy fences” are arranged along the roads, near which plastic buckets are buried one at a distance from one another. Frogs and toads, moving along the "fences", fall into these buckets, and people then carry them across the road. The construction of specific underground passages for amphibians is also planned. But all this is still in other countries. Not with us.

These are the relations with a person in frogs and toads ...

Look what big, sad eyes look at you. And how much peace, restraint in these creatures! It even seems that they are silently and proudly waiting for when we are finally fair to them.
What are frogs and toads
But, in spite of everything, frogs and toads live on Earth. Their diverse relatives also live: frogs, toads, garlickards, tritons, salamanders ... There are 3,200 species of amphibians in the world.

Of the frogs, pond, lake, grass and moorish are especially common.

The first two are green frogs.

They spend their whole lives in the water or near it, they even winter at the bottom of water bodies. And of course, the green color helps them to remain invisible. The pond frog grows to a length of 8 centimeters. The lake is much larger - up to 15 centimeters. Herbal and moorish - brown frogs. Most of the time they spend on land, where the brown color (the color of dry leaves, sticks and blades of grass) does them a good service.

These frogs, like all amphibians, breed in the water, and the grass frogs also winters there. Moor frogs hibernate, as a rule, on land - in the holes of rodents, in some holes, in cracks, in heaps of fallen leaves. They are smaller than grass (grass can be up to 10 centimeters), but in general they are similar. In order to distinguish these frogs, one must keep in mind: the moor has a white abdomen and a grassy spotty. The moor, in addition, has a pointed muzzle. And during breeding, the males of this frog acquire an amazing blue color.

Two species of toads are widely distributed in our country: green and gray. They differ from each other not only in color, but also in size: gray is much larger than green. Both toads spend most of the year on land, and only for reproduction temporarily migrate to water. The green toad overwintering in the burrows of animals, holes and other shelters, may burrow into loose earth. Gray often climbs into the cellars and basements. Figure 26


Similar but different
Some confuse frogs with toads, and toads confuse frogs. Compare them to each other.

It is not difficult to find similarity traits: both those and others spend part of the time on land, and some - in the water, at least in the water multiply. The development of both begins with the eggs - from it emerges a tadpole, which gradually turns into an adult frog or toad. The skin and those and others naked. And they mainly feed on insects. Many similarities and just in appearance, habits.

What are the differences?

Let's start with caviar. The laying of the frog caviar has the appearance of large lumps, and the toad roe is hidden inside the mucous cords, and the length of such cords is 3-5 meters from the gray toad, and up to 7 meters from the green!

Tadpoles of frogs and toads are similar. But the former usually swim shallowly among aquatic plants, while the latter stay near the bottom. That is why the body of toad tadpoles is slightly flattened from top to bottom, and the head is elongated - it is easier to dig into the silt.

Adult frogs have smooth, moist and very delicate skin. In frogs, on the contrary, it is hilly, drier and coarser. Skin secretions of frogs are almost non-poisonous, and in toads they are poisonous to animals, they smell unpleasant. Especially large venom glands are located in the toad behind the eyes. However, the toad excretes its poison only when the predator has enough of it. Many predators immediately discard dangerous prey.

And to a person, a toad can harm the poison only if it gets into the mouth or eyes.

Frogs are much more agile than toads. Everyone knows how cleverly they jump, pushing off with their long hind legs. Slow toads are not capable of such feats - legs are short! Language - hunting device - they are also shorter than frog. For these reasons, during the hunt they get mainly crawling insects, and the frogs - and crawling, and flying.

Interestingly, the toads have absolutely no teeth, while the frogs have them, but only on the upper jaw and very, very small.

Frogs tend to hunt day and night. Toads leave shelters only at night or at dusk.

Some consider frogs to be pretty creatures, and toads are ugly. To me, they both seem beautiful in their own way and equally deserving of respect.
Link in an unbroken chain
Even a bug that crunched under the wheels is a reproach to a person. So says the writer Vasily Mikhailovich Peskov. And this is true. We, the people, have a difficult duty: not to let the living disappear, which so trustfully surrounds us on earth. It is the duty of the strong.

Frogs and toads must live because we are stronger than them ...

But they must live also because in the chains of nature, where everything is connected one to another, they have their very important place. For each ruined frog nature can charge us.

At least this: one per day frog eats up to seven insects and other creatures that can cause damage to humans. After wintering, it appears at the end of April, and it leaves for wintering at the end of September, therefore, it feeds itself for five months, and this time it will eat more than a thousand of all kinds of mosquitoes, flies, dangerous for our economy bugs. Thus, it does not allow these creatures to multiply beyond measure.

Frogs and toads are the keepers of balance in nature. Thank them for that!

But the equilibrium in nature depends not only on the quantity of frogs and toads. It depends on who and in what quantity eats the frogs and toads themselves! They eat them, especially frogs, storks, herons, gulls, birds of prey, badgers, otters, minks, raccoon dogs and many other birds and animals, as well as predatory fish. The life of all these animals depends largely on frogs and toads.

Imagine a natural chain: mosquitoes - frogs - storks. Try to break it mentally: imagine that the frogs have disappeared. Oh, how mosquitoes began to multiply uncontrollably! And the storks? They are getting smaller ... No, natural chains cannot be torn!

And people are tearing. And not only when they simply catch frogs or destroy toads. “Even a one-time treatment of forests with pesticides,” writes Professor Andrey G. Bannikov, “reduces the number of frogs, toads, newts and lizards by a factor of 2-3.” But what about the frequent pesticide spraying of fields and gardens? But what about the pollution of water bodies with household and industrial waste? And drainage of swamps, shallowing and drying of lakes and small rivers?

But let's hope that in time people will cope with these troubles.

In addition, there are already the first successful experiments of artificial breeding of frogs. And someday, perhaps soon, there will be real frog farms, from which wolves will be sent both abroad and to scientific institutes. And ... in the river that flows next door.

In Russia, children from time immemorial love ladybirds. In childhood, if a ladybug sat on our hands, we told her a poem: "Ladybird, fly to heaven, Bring us bread, Black, white, Just not burnt." She listened attentively, and we threw her to the sky. And the continuation of the poem is: “Ladybird, Fly to heaven - I will give you bread! Ladybug, Fly to heaven, There your children Eat candy - All one by one, And not one for you! "" Ladybug, fly to heaven, Bring us bread, Black, white, Just not burnt. " She listened attentively, and we threw her to the sky. And the continuation of the poem is: “Ladybird, Fly to heaven - I will give you bread! Ladybug, Fly to heaven, There your children Eat sweets - All one by one, And you no one! "


In Russia, traditionally they turned to the cow with the question: “Ladybird, will there be a bucket tomorrow?” If she flew away, it means that the weather will be fine, if not, it will rain. The Slavs "guessed" with the help of a ladybird, asking: "Ladybird, should I live, should I die or fly to heaven?"

Legend of Ladybug: The image of a ladybug is found in a number of East Slavic myths. According to one of them, the wife of the god of thunder Perun was turned into a ladybird, thus punished for treason. Seduced by the serpent-tempter, Perynya fled with him, leaving the children. Perun singed it with lightning, and since then on its wings you can see seven spots by the number of children left in the sky. The image of a ladybug is found in a number of East Slavic myths.

The name of this insect is associated with the belief that the ladybird refers to the sky herd of Perun. It mediates the connection between heaven and earth, between the powerful god and people. Therefore, she was credited with magical power, the ability to influence the weather. People tried not to kill the ladybirds, so as not to incur God's wrath.

Do you know ... Many people believe that by the number of points on the back of a ladybug you can determine its age. This is not true. There are a huge number of different ladybirds in the world, and the number of points on their wings depends on the species. They can be from two to twenty six.

THREE LIVES OF GOD DOES Yellow shiny eggs are glued in heaps on the bottom of the leaves. Inside the testicle, you can see a small larva. She fidgets, fumbles there - wants to get out.

THE SECOND LIFE OF A GOD-COW It's a strange, this second life. Without traveling through the bushes, through the grasses, without hunting feats. Hanging, simple hanging in a secluded place.

This is interesting: The origin of the name "cow" is most likely due to the biological peculiarity of the bug: it can give milk, and not ordinary, but redder! Such fluid is released in case of danger from the pores on the folds of the limbs. Milk is extremely unpleasant to taste (and in large doses even deadly!) And scares off predators.

Close a window






Once in the middle of July, in the country, we walked with dogs along an ugly, plastic fence. The road was covered with prickly gravel, and it was painful to walk, even in slippers. Nasty gravel wounded and dog paws. It was all boring.

And suddenly ... a huge yellow butterfly flew past us and sat in the middle of the road - it was attracted by stones heated in the sun. My heart beat with excitement - it was MAKHAON! I have never seen swallowtails here, although I take lots of butterflies.

Makhaon felt my interest in him and began to tease: he would pose, then he would fly up to the next stone, the dogs would rush to him, and he would fly away - in general, the picture was not the best.

Therefore, I will give a description of the Machaon from the book “Other Shores” by the remarkable writer Vladimir Nabokov: “On the Persian lilac at the veranda of the outhouse I saw my first Machaon ... fawn spurs hung with a tilted raspberry-purple cluster and, reveling in it, all the time they flapped convulsively with their huge wings. ”

Butterflies - this is a miracle bestowed on us by nature.

But attention lovers of nature! Hurry to capture this miracle, because in Europe, in those places where toxic chemicals are used in the fields, there are NO butterflies! Now, however, in many countries began to abandon chemistry, and butterflies reappear in the meadows.

And we still have a huge variety of butterflies: day and night, and the farther from the city, the more rare butterflies!

And most importantly - no need to catch and kill them. All these boxes with pinned, dried butterflies are disgusting. They look like plastic flowers, fruit from wax, landscapes painted on stone walls ...

Let the nature around us be alive and beautiful!

And how much the same butterfly still harbors unsolved mysteries of nature! During their life, butterflies go through four transformations - a metamorphosis. The transition from one stage (egg) to another (caterpillar) is called metamorphosis. Four complete metamorphosis: an egg, a caterpillar, a pupa, and an adult (butterfly). Every new transformation in butterflies is complete - the pupa is completely different from the butterfly!

Testicles  - This is the first phase of development. The butterflies take great care of them, fill the testicles with secretions of glands hardening in the air, and they produce capsules that are usually masked by the color of the surface (plant leaf, tree bark).

The next period is adolescence, and from the eggs larvae appear - caterpillars. They actively feed, grow rapidly, increasing body weight (sometimes tenfold!), And accumulate fat for the following transformations. The caterpillars have a gnawing mouth apparatus and feed on the leaves of plants. Often in the name of the butterfly is indicated the food preference of its caterpillar, for example: urticaria, burdock, cabbage soup. Sometimes the plant is indicated in the adjective: poplar lentochnik, willow peribus.

Each caterpillar has three pairs of jointed legs with claws and several (up to five pairs) false legs with bundles of claws, which allows it to cling to any surface. The caterpillars are very diverse in color and appearance, and some of them - bright green, red, yellow with colored touches - are just amazing! The bright color of the caterpillars often indicates: “Don't touch me, I'm poisonous!” The brown and green colors help the caterpillar to hide better, because it is very tasty for birds. Sometimes caterpillars look exceptionally nasty, for example caterpillars of urticaria or peacock eyes. Probably, many of you have seen in the summer, in the country, clinging to the nettle black-striped caterpillars in black setae. And if you look at them under a microscope - then these are creatures from horror movies! But this is also a protective disguise!



During the last molt, the caterpillar turns into dolly. The pupae are very cute and varied in color and shape. They do not eat, do not move, and usually hang, attached to branches, or lie loose on the ground, among the fallen leaves.

The day before the birth through the shell of the pupa it is already possible to consider the coloring of the wings of the future beauty of the butterfly. And if you're lucky, you can see how a butterfly hatches from a pupa, slowly turning folded wings - this is an amazing sight!

The pattern and color of the butterfly's open wings is completely different than the underside coloring. This is also a protective mechanism: folding the wings, the butterfly merges with the texture of the tree or sheet and becomes invisible to predators. And what a carved butterfly and lace edge of the wings!

The butterflies themselves feed on the nectar of flowers, and at the dacha I specifically grow onions, oregano, Persian lilacs and Sedums - the favorite melliferous butterflies.

The adult summer butterfly lives from several days to several weeks. Autumn butterflies remain to winter and can live more than ten months. Some butterflies fly five thousand kilometers! It was such a swallowtail that we saw on our road.

And once in the fall I brought thin cabbage cabbages grown by me into the city. And, apparently, the well-fed caterpillars of cabbage butterflies arrived with them. They crawled out, pupated and, clinging to the wall behind the refrigerator, hung there until the sixth of January. And imagine my amazement when at Christmas three white butterflies suddenly fluttered in my kitchen! Just miniature angels! Alas, their life was short: cold, boring, nothing to eat, although I put drops of honey and jam with syrup on the window sill, but they fluttered and fell asleep forever on indoor flowers. Unfortunately, I was not ready for their appearance.
