| Palmyra PA Posts: 1587 | The entomologists here will know more about what it eats, but I believe dragonfly nymphs are carnivorous, and eat other water creatures. To see what it will turn into, use the Google search function at http://www.google.com and search dragonfly insect. I believe you will get pictures of the adult. | |
