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.
