Darners (Family Aeshnidae)

The dragonflies of the darner family are among the largest found in Ontario. Named for their resemblance to darning needles, they can be seen patrolling over open areas, sometimes in swarms, or perching vertically, either on vertical surfaces such as tree or hanging from a branch.
