The waterstriders found in the streams and the rivers at the Conservancy, are fast. To catch them you need to find a big group and scoop your hands in and with your fingers apart and close them as soon as you touch the water, and it will trap the waterstriders in between your fingers. The crayfish range from about the size of your middle finger to the size of your thumb fingenail to your first thumb joint. One girl had a baby crayfish stuck Croc (a shoe). On a plant stem we saw a dragonfly case, that was like a cicada shell, and it was when a dragonfly got its wings (when a dragonfly larvae comes out of the water and gets onto a branch like a cicada and sheds out of its skin to get its wings.)
On the way back my teacher saw a huge fishing spider with an egg sac. She said she almost had a heart attach. There was a lot of ticks.

This summer I took a picture of a
dragonfly nymph.
Hard to believe it is the same animal as the adult!
I wonder where the spider was going with the egg sac.
Great post you got here. I'd like to read something more about this theme. Thanx for giving this information.
