Watching dragonflies dart among the plants on a riverbank or at the
edge of your pond is one of the joys of summer. But do you know a
Southern Damselfly from a Variable Damselfly? Or can you tell the
difference between a Scarce Chaser and a Keeled Skimmer?
Dragonflies and damselflies - known collectively as Odonata - are
some of our most fascinating insects. Although they only live for a
short time, they have many behaviours that are easy to observe,
including captivating aerial skills that they utilise to hunt in
mid-air. RSPB ID Spotlight Dragonflies and Damselflies is a
reliable fold-out chart that presents illustrations of 42 of our
most widespread and familiar Odonata by renowned artist Richard
Lewington. - Species are grouped by family and helpfully labelled
to assist with identification - Artworks are shown side by side for
quick comparison and easy reference at home or in the field - The
reverse of the chart provides information on the habitats,
behaviour, life cycles and diets of our dragonflies and
damselflies, as well as the conservation issues they are facing and
how the RSPB and other conservation charities are working to
support them - Practical tips on how to install a wildlife pond and
make your garden more dragonfly- and damselfly-friendly are also
included The ID Spotlight charts help wildlife enthusiasts identify
and learn more about our most common species using accurate colour
illustrations and informative, accessible text.
