Not all-aquatic wildlife has fins or scales! Join a ranger as we take dip-nets down to the pond to search for dragonfly larvae and other macro-invertebrates hiding in the mud. Get an up-close look at these secretive creatures and learn how some grow up to be the winged insects we know so well! Plan to get at little wet and muddy!
