Ragged Robin Wildllife Group Visit

Monday, July 28th 2014

The Ragged Robin Wildlife Group visited the reserve yesterday; they spent the morning walking the reserve and enjoyed the many wildflowers, butterflies and dragonflies that can be seen now. During the afternoon we put on a pond dipping session for them.

Toad tadpoles, damselfly larvae and Water Boatmen were amongst some of the creatures seen by the group. Damselflies and dragonflies have been seen laying their eggs in the ponds so it shouldn’t be too long before many more larvae are seen on these sessions.

We hope that you all enjoyed your visit here yesterday.
