Experiencing Interruptions?

Dragonflies

One Saturday morning, just an hour outside Minneapolis, a mysterious group gathers. They sterilize their boots to ensure they aren’t tracking in any invasive aquatic species from neighboring streams... they descend a steep path down to Minnesota’s Crow River.

These are odonatologists, which means that today, they’re looking for ... dragonflies.

existing reality. To change something,
build a new model that makes the
existing model obsolete.”
