About Butterfly & Dragonfly Walk
Find all the butterfly & dragonfly hotspots on this walk around the reserve with our expert warden. Observe them in their natural habitats where you’ll find lots of lovely flora and insect life.
Dragonflies are very fast and hard to spot, but we know just where to go to find them. These incredible insects fly backwards, perform dramatic hairpin turns, and come in an array of mesmerising colours with the most intricate wings. Join us on one of our favourite walks and learn how to tell the difference between a dragonfly and a damselfly.
