Description

Water-dipper, snake doctor, adderbold, and darning needle. What do all of these words have in common? They’re all different species names of the animal that we’re talking about this week. This is probably an animal you’ve seen flying around your backyard, and no matter how many times you've see them, it’s always amazing to watch them in flight. So, join Alex as we look at one of the most recognizable insects in the world: dragonflies.
