"An illustrated guide to observing, catching and releasing
dragonflies."
Dragonflies are as fascinating as they are beautiful. In this
book readers will learn how to observe them in the wild and have
them hover as close as their nose Dragonflies and their close
relatives, damselflies, have been around longer than dinosaurs and
can be found on all continents except Antarctica. One dragonfly
species makes the longest migration of any insect in the world.
Dragonflies can be found in wetlands, forests, fields and even
backyards. This illustrated guide to dragonflies and damselflies is
packed with all the facts about what they are, what they eat, and
what eats them. Their life cycle is explored, beginning from eggs
that hatch into wingless nymphs that live underwater and breathe
through gills.
With the help of this detailed guide featuring close-up
photographs, readers will learn tips and tricks for how to properly
catch, hold and let a dragonfly go. An identification section
allows the reader to quickly and easily identify the most popular
species and illustrates how each is unique, from darners to
clubtails, spiketails to cruisers, and emeralds to skimmers.
