$30 Non-Member / $24 Member
Dragonflies and their cousins, damselflies, are beautifully colored masters of the skies. This class introduces these insects, focusing on their diversity, life cycle, and habits. We will also talk about the basics for identifying them, so that students will be ready to head to the nearest wetland to observe them.
