If you are planning to remove your garden pond, consider contacting someone who is an expert and can help with the remaining animals and move them into another pond. 5/5

This example just shows that garden ponds can be extremely important for dragonflies, and that one should never underestimate the potential of a garden pond as a habitat harbouring a large number of individuals. 4/n

Maja Ilić @majailiczg.bsky.social · 06/12/2025

These were all moved to two other garden ponds (many thanks to those offering their garden ponds as a refuge!). There are probably still a few larvae left, so a colleague will take over and help on Monday. 3/n

I was called yesterday and asked if I could check this pond before it gets drained, so I took some equipment and started collecting larvae around 10:30. After ca. 1:15 h, I managed to collect 146 Aeshna cyanea larvae, a common frog (Rana temporaria) and two great pond snails (Lymnea stagnalis). 2/n

exuviae, which I absolutely enjoy doing, and am learning so much about it!

Very excited about the future of this project!

attractive and suitable for dragon- and damselflies. This is an incredible opportunity to delve into urban ecology, learn about odonata, extend my network, bring people together and communicate science, which I find super important! I am also investing quite some time into identification of 3/n

Maja Ilić @majailiczg.bsky.social · 22/06/2025

positively surprised by the number of larvae and exuviae I found, together with two very motivated student helpers. What brings me most joy is talking to the "owners" of the ponds, who are all so kind and super interested, and keen to learn and even improve their ponds to make them even more 2/n

A month ago, I started a small project on #odonata in #urbanponds, where I'm monitoring 10 different ponds in a community garden in Cologne over a course of 5 months and assessing the diversity of dragonflies and damselflies. This weekend, I was visiting the ponds for a second time, and was 1/n

Wichtig: die Libellen sollten keinesfalls gestört, gefangen oder getötet werden. Die frisch geschlüpften Imagines sind sehr empfindlich! Außerdem sollten in der Natur die Wanderwege nicht verlassen werden. Sammelt also Exuvien nur dann, wenn dadurch die Libellen & die Natur nicht geschädigt werden.

Ihr habt einen Gartenteich oder seid gerne in der Natur unterwegs und interessiert euch für Artenvielfalt? Dann wäre dies eine tolle Gelegenheit, im Rahmen von #CitizenScience Exuvien von Libellen zu sammeln für Forschung und Lehre. Mehr Infos findet ihr unten. Gerne teilen!
