Join Forest Society staffer Carrie Deegan for an exploration of dragonflies on the Merrimack River Floodplain in Concord. We’ll learn some of the basics about dragonfly biology and behavior, and use nets to capture and examine dragonflies and damselflies up close.  All “dragons” will be released unharmed.  If you have ever wondered what these amazing insects look like up close, this is a great opportunity to find out!  Easy hike; children and families welcome.  No dogs on this field trip, please.  Bring footwear you don't mind getting wet if you'd like to try catching dragonflies!  Limit of 25 people; pre-register using link below.
