@davey_cakes@mastodon.ie I have spent more time than I'm willing to admit thinking about this and doing web searches, and now I'm desperate to know a solid example of four.I did come across the "widow skimmer dragonfly", which works if you're willing to stretch: you have to grant that widows and dragons are legitimately animals and take "skimmer" to be the type of bird. It's not entirely satisfying.
