Description
Learn about the brutal and brief lives of dragonflies, megafauna members of the insect world. Their exceptional flight and jewel-like colors have captivated humans throughout time. ASU Life Sciences Professor Pierre Deviche will share his enthusiasm and knowledge of the order Odonata. He will touch on topics including anatomy, life cycle, behavior, diversity of Arizona species, and how, where and when to look for them. Join Laurie Nessel for the Sunday session for a tour of the Garden's pond to look for and identify early season dragonflies and decipher their tactics and behavior. Close focus binoculars are highly recommended.
