It is some times very difficult to distinguish the
Golden Winged Skimmer Dragonfly from Needham's Skimmer
as both share the same habitat together except the Golden
dragon is found more inland. Our electronic golden winged
dragonflies look very close to the real skimmers found
in nature and may even fool one of them now and then!
With the 2 Add-on Dragonfly Kit you can string along two
additional golden winged skimmers or any of our other
moving butterflies and dragonflies to create a very impressive
display. The stunningly realistic translucent moving wings
give the appearance of actual dragonflies resting on a
perch! Electronic golden winged dragonflies have a very
natural wing movement similar to a real dragonfly when
it is resting between flights. The wings are made to resist
fading from UV light and are moisture resistant as well.
However, we don't recommend you expose any of the electronic
parts to direct water for prolonged periods of time.
