All brave lads and lasses are invited to search for dragons and damsels from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, at the Prairie Wetlands Learning Center (PWLC) in Fergus Falls

Fire-breathing dragons? Damsels in distress? Actually, this free public workshop is a modern adventure seeking members of the insect order Odonata, dragonflies and damselflies, in partnership with the Minnesota Odonata Survey Project (MOSP), www.mndragonfly. org.

Kurt Mead, author of the award-winning field guide, Dragonflies of the North Woods, and the founder and coordinator of the MOSP, is leading the workshop.

The day includes an interactive introduction to dragonflies and damselflies, field exploration with nets and cameras pursuing these amazing insect predators, and details about participation in the survey.

Call to register, 218-998-4480. All-ages are welcome including children accompanied by adults.
