Hello Wildlife Watchers. Unfortunately, there will be no Wildlife Watch session tomorrow due to leader availability.

We hope to be back in July. Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to seeing you then!

A brilliant session for our Wildlife Watchers at Shewalton Woods today. We spent the morning pond dipping and discovered tadpoles, greater and lesser boatmen and even a leech

We then used our drawing skills to create stop motion animations showing the frog life cycle which looked amazing! 🐸

Thanks everyone for coming along! Next session will be 13th June!

A relaxed sunny walk around Shewalton Woods reserve for our Birdsong Wildlife Watch. We heard or saw chiffchaff, willow warbler, goldcrest, goldfinch, wren, blackbird, siskin, chaffinch, kestrel, buzzard, robin, mallard, heron, Canada geese and a few more. We also got a brief view of a roe buck disappearing into the trees.
