The meadows at Hazeland are teeming with butterflies and other pollinators in August. Inspired by Butterfly Conservation's 'Big Butterfly Count' we are inviting you to come and find out about the fantastic diversity of pollinator life at Hazeland on Saturday 9th August.
Guides will be there to show you around the site and help you identify and understand what you see. We will provide identification sheets to help you spot the different kinds of butterflies at Hazeland.
The walk will set off at 12pm and will take about an hour. No prior knowledge of butterflies is needed to enjoy this event.
We hope this event will inspire you to look out for butterflies in you own garden too, as part of the Big Butterfly Count: https://bigbutterflycount.butterfly-conservation.org/
Directions will be sent out once you have registered. We're looking forward to having you at Hazeland to find out more about the butterfly life and enjoy this special place.
Please be aware that due to preserving the biodiversity at Hazeland there are no hardstanding paths and we are not able to allow dogs on site.
This event is free to attend and we are very grateful to the National Lottery Heritage Fund for their support.
