Damsels and Dragons

June 25, 2016

On this outing we explored the Osprey Wetland Conservation Lands where we searched for the ultimate insect predators. Damselflies and dragonflies are members of the order Odonata – meaning “toothed ones” which reference their awesome mouth parts. This is our clubs ninth outing to look for these predators and our first time at this large wetland complex in Osprey Township. The headwaters of the Mad and Saugeen Rivers rise within this region.
