Description An evening meeting to find out what is happening at dusk! We will have pond-dipping equipment, strong torches and bat detectors available in order to discover what is active in and above the pond. Close encounters with newts, bats and dragonfly larvae are expected! In addition we will take a stroll onto Wharncliffe Heath to find out if the elusive Nightjar is churring. Please bring a torch, and wear stout footwear.
