What do you mean by dragonflies flying all over the sky?

Dragonflies flying all over the sky usually mean weather changes or vitality.

One theory holds that the flight of dragonflies can predict weather changes. They usually appear in Chuqing before or after the rain, flying in groups at low altitude. This may be because at these times, the air humidity is high, the wings of small insects are too wet to fly high, and dragonflies are feeding on these small insects. Therefore, the dragonfly flying at low altitude means that the weather is about to become rainy.

Another way of saying it is that the flying dragonflies also reflect the vitality of nature and the healthy ecosystem. Dragonflies are an important food source for many creatures, and they play an important role in the ecosystem. So dragonflies flying all over the sky also means that the ecosystem is more prosperous and active.

Therefore, flying dragonflies may mean rain, or it may be a sign that the ecosystem is more prosperous and active.
