About This Activity

Leader: Lisa Shannon Lecture: Thursday, July 30, 7-9 pm (Woodend Nature Sanctuary) Field Trip: Saturday, August 1, 9:30 am-12 pm, Pine Lake at Wheaton Regional Park Grab your binoculars and prepare to set your sights not on birds – although “mosquito hawk” is a common moniker – but on those six-legged, aerial acrobats of wetland habitats: the dragonflies and damselflies. During the evening lecture, our leader will discuss ID, biology, and behavior of the more common species of Odonates in our area. You’ll join our leader for a morning field trip to the wetland habitats of Pine Lake in Wheaton Regional Park, where all will have a chance to test their identification skills.
