Extract

In most parts of temperate North America the true Dragon-flies are among the most conspicous members of the insect class in any community where water is at hand. Strong of flight, quick as a thought in their darting movements, wary in the highest degree, they are usually well known to all by sight, yet not often captured by the amateur collector unless he takes the time to devote his special attention to them at some favourable place.
