There's a lot going on in the natural world in winter, so bundle up the family and join us for a short introduction indoors, and then we'll go for a walk.

During the summer months, we see insects all around us.

But don't be fooled: even in March, insects are still with us in one form or another.

Would you like to become an insect detective?

Join us for a few buggy activities inside, and then we'll take a walk to search for hibernating and even some active insects.
