Join the Rangers for this celebration of aquatic life! This is a drop-in public event, 11-3pm, with dragonfly arts and crafts on offer for donations. It is aimed at children aged 5-11.

We will look for our rare Northern Damselfly and other colourful insects flying close to the banks of the Flight Pond.

Book ahead to join us on one of our pond-dipping sessions, to see what creatures we can find in the water, including the larvae (young) of the dragonflies and damselflies.
