Damsels and Dragonfly Outing

Back To Gallery
July 25, 2026

We searched for the ultimate insect predators at Kinghurst Nature Reserve. Damselflies and dragonflies are members of the order Odonata meaning “toothed ones” which reference their awesome mouth parts.
This was our clubs 17th annual outing to look for these predators.
