Ohio Dragonfly Survey (Ohio Odonata Survey)
Early June
We're off to a roaring start, and will now be hitting our peak diversity in the next two weeks.
May now has 7,789 observations, for 102 species - this is well ahead of 2023, which was a new high at the time (4,255 obs, 86 sp).
On the year we're approaching 10,000 observations. Every county has 2024 observations, nearly 500 contributors.
So far we have 38 species with new early flight dates. We also have 45 new county records. 13 of the new county records are in target counties, so yay.
We started the year with 25 counties below 1,000 total observations. That count is now 17, and 3 counties are now very near the mark. So making progress. Thanks to all contributing.
