Did you know that dragonflies breathe through the body, not the head? Join us for an up-close look at these often overlooked insects: Dragonflies and damselflies. Experts Kathy and Dave Biggs have a slide-show presentation and fun activities. You will have an opportunity to see specimens with a powerful hand lens. This program will be complemented August 1, with a special hike to Natural Bridges for a dragonfly expedition!
