About the event

Do you think you have what it takes to become a nature detective? Join us to uncover the mystery of what wildlife is living at Summer Leys. What you'll get up to...

  • We'll head on a short walk to look for animal tracks, signs and habitats to figure out which animals have been visiting the reserve
  • We'll pop into one of our bird hides to do a bit of birdwatching
  • We'll then head to our private education area where you'll get the chance to search for minibeasts and have a go at dissecting an owl pellet
