Dragons & Damsels

RI Land Trust Days event at Norman Bird Sanctuary

Saturday, September 6th (12:00-1:30 pm)

$6 Members, $8 Non-members

Late summer is a great time to observe one of the flashiest families of flying insects, the Odonata or dragonflies and damselflies.

In this program we will spend some time inside exploring what makes these closely related insects so fascinating, and then go down to the Norman Bird Sanctuary pond to search for living examples.
