We will hunt for dragon and damselflies along Sycamore Creek in the Hague Nature Preserve. &nbsp;If you have any insect nets, feel free to bring yours as we will attempt to capture some to examine and photograph prior to releasing them. &nbsp;Bring your camera or cell phone! There will be a 1/2-mile hike from the parking area to the program site. &nbsp;This section of the preserve is being restored and is shrubby, so wearing long pants is strongly recommended. &nbsp;You may also want to wear a long-sleeved shirt or arm sleeves for protection. &nbsp;Don&rsquo;t forget your sunscreen, a sunhat, and/or insect repellent. &nbsp;Keep in mind, there are no restrooms in this location.
