Delmarva Dragonflies and Damselflies
Join Professor Hal White for a walk in one of the most interesting counties for dragonflies and damselflies on the Delmarva Peninsula. A professor of biochemistry at the University of Delaware, Hal has been fascinated by insects, especially dragonflies, since high school. It is a serious hobby that has taken him from Canada to Mexico and across the United States. He has published articles on the dragonflies and damselflies of Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Acadia National Park in Maine, and has described the larval forms of two endangered species of dragonfly. His book, Natural History of Delmarva Dragonflies and Damselflies, was published last year by University of Delaware Press in collaboration with the Delaware Nature Society. The book will be available for purchase and signing.
This program is free with admission ($5 for adults, $2 for students), payable on the morning of the program.
