You live on the surface of the water,
if surprised you swim in circles around and around…

You can see with those strange divided eyes,
above and below! Whirling around and around…

You can dive  deep down and stay for a long time,
due to all your bubbles around and around…

You swim in large groups and never do you
bump into each other! Whirling around and around…

This is why you are called a Whirligig,
around and around and around again!

Satyrid, also called satyr butterfly, any of several butterflies of the family Satyridae,
having gray or brown wings marked with "eye-spots."
