About the event

Better known as one of the largest sanctuaries for Great Crested Newts, Hampton Nature Reserve is also wonderful for butterflies. Visiting in late Spring (and hopefully in sunshine!) with a guide from the Froglife site management team should let us see Green Hairstreak and the scarce Dingy and Grizzled Skipper.
