Come and survey orchids, birds. small mammals and more at our daytime Bioblitz event at Mowbray Fields!
As part of our Earth Trust Community Reserve Bioblitz, we’ll be surveying the Mowbray Fields nature reserve, looking out for small mammals, birds, butterflies, insects, orchids and more.
What to expect:
Led by Earth Trust Ranger, Charley, and our volunteer experts, we'll be using specialist equipment - including binoculars, sweep nets, insect pots, and eye lenses - to discover the hidden world of our meadow, which has become home to the stunning common spotted and southern marsh orchids
This is a fantastic opportunity to connect with nature, contribute to conservation efforts in your local area, and learn more about the diverse species that call Mowbray Fields home. Come along for a hands-on morning exploring nature, learning new skills, and helping to build a snapshot of biodiversity at this tranquil nature reserve.
Everyone is welcome! Whether you're a keen wildlife recorder or just curious about what lives in your local green spaces, this is a great way to get involved.
