Dragonflies move at running speed and live only in Swamps, making them quite difficult to catch. Since they move faster than you, and your stamina will likely not last at walking speed in a swamp, the best way to catch them is to stay at crawling speed and make the most of your patience. Dragonflies move randomly, changing directions at regular intervals. Right click on the dragonfly (An impressive feat in and of itself!) and your character will pursue the dragonfly indefinitely: Simply wait until you and the dragonfly happen to be headed directly towards each other, and accelerate to walking speed to ensure the catch. Do note that you ARE in a swamp, so you may want to take care not to be drained dry by leeches.

Another method to catching Dragonflies is to give them some space (zoom out) wait until one is heading your way, line up properly in front of it, zoom in very close and click on it so that it comes to you.

Due to a glitch, these guys can be put into drying racks which will cause them to disappear instantly. Be careful when putting stuff up to dry!
