Green Darners are among the most common dragonflies in North America and are noted for their migratory swarms along the East Coast. Green Darners can be found in a wide variety of wetlands beginning in mid-spring, and throughout the summer and early fall. This dragonfly was captured and scanned by Dr. Kevin Curry (Professor, Department of Biological Sciences) and digitally manipulated to create this image by Dr. Jeffery Bowen (Associate Professor, Department of Biological Sciences).  Dragonfly RoseThe image on the inside back cover is of the dragonfly Celithemis eponina or Halloween Pennant. Dr. Kevin Curry (Professor, Department of Biological Sciences) captured this male HalloweenPennant at Carver Pond, a Bridgewater town park just southeast of campus, in the summer of 2004. Halloween Pennants are common inhabitants of wetlands and well-vegetated ponds and lakes in Massachusetts throughout the summer months. The dragonfly was scanned as a matter of protocol and documentation. However, Dr. Jeffery Bowen (Associate Professor,Department of Biological Sciences), who helped in the scanning process, created this digital image using Photoshop, resulting in the stunning kaleidoscopic pattern shown here.
