The correct answer for no 1 is dragonfly. What us wrong with you people? Unless fly and dragon fly are scored as the same. I would do it that way.

No butterfly is the correct answer. Butterflies have big multicolored wings that get exhibited in zoos and museums. Flies have scrawny little invisible wings that they use to fly around garbage cans.

no! the correct answer is mosquito - because the weather is warm enough for those little vampires to come out in force
