Conflicts in a pond
Description
This is the unusual story of a little-known insect: the water beetle. Having spent the winter beneath the ice, the water beetle which can walk, swim, and fly, stirs with the first signs of spring. Its habitat: a small pond. Its neighbors: dragonflies, frogs and newts. Its daily life: survival. Between two skirmishes, it gives birth to some twenty larvae of varying kinds ... only the most voracious will make it to adulthood before the pond dries out.
