Making Butterfly Feeders

Monday, August 16th 2021

Throughout the summer holidays there are lots of events for children; families visiting the reserve today had the chance to make butterfly feeders. This was one of the drop in wildlife craft sessions so there was no need to book in advance. 

Thank you to our Chairperson Lesley who gave up her day to run this popular wildlife craft activity. 

The next event will be a Minibeast Safari. Entomologist Dr Roger Key will be on hand to help identify the invertebrates that are discovered during this 'family bubble' event. Booking is essential for this activity as there will different time slots. See the events page for further details.
