Description

Dragonflies have been on our planet for an estimated 250 million years; however, the shifting nature of our modern landscapes presents challenges. Blake will discuss the ecology of dragonflies: their adaptations, needs, obstacles, and ways we can modify our own landscapes to provide safe havens for these ancient creatures.

As part of the Gardening for Life Speaker Series join Blake Dinius, Entomologist Extension Educator at the County of Plymouth.
