Oding, the Art of Dragonfly-Watching
Image via Wikipedia
In the United States, finding and watching dragonflies and damselflies is a hobby like birding and butterflying.
Dragonfly-watching is known as oding, from the dragonfly’s Latin genus name, odonata. Here is a great site for those who are just getting started in odling, called Odes for Beginners.
Oding is especially popular in Texas, where 225 different species of odonates have been observed.
With care, and with dry fingers, oders can handle and release dragonflies. (That can also be done with butterflies, though it is not a good idea.)

Your Questions About Dragonfly Gardening
George asks…
Is there any organisation that would need a giant dragonfly?
At this moment in time there is an endangered insect in the garden, a giant dragonfly. Or what we believe to be a giant dragonfly, it matches all the description. We have looked it up and found out that is rare and like previously stated, endangered. So, we would like to know if there is an organisation that we could call to ask about it or see if they would want it, or something along those lines. Thanks.
Dragonfly Lore answers:
While there may be organizations that might want the giant dragonfly, you cannot trap, harm, or interfere with the dragonfly. If the dragonfly were to be injured or in immediate danger, you would need to contact the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service.
William asks…
How can I save a Dragonfly with torn wings?
I found him in the garden on the bricks trying to fly but he can’t because he has a tear in his back wings.
Dragonfly Lore answers:
You can’t save him, unless you’re willing to keep him in captivity. If you do, put him in a terrarium, at room temperature, and hand feed him insects, like pin-head crickets. You can buy these from any good pet store.
