On FB, a friend posted a photograph of a huge insect in her garden, and asked if anyone knew what it was. It had two sets of wings.
One of my daughters suggested an alien.
I suggested a dragonfly - because of the wings.
Apparently, it was much fatter than a dragonfly, but about 5-6cm long..
Within a minute, both my daughter and I came up with the same answer - a female 'Broad Bodied Chaser' dragonfly.

What had we both 'Googled'? ..........
'Fat Dragonfly' :-D :-D :-D :-D Obviously, we both go for simple searches!

Here it is, if you find one:
