Pond Dipping Workshop for Over 18s - Sutton Courtenay, Friday 17 July

Under the surface of the pond lurks an incredible diversity of fascinating life. Frogs and toads are just the tip of the iceberg. From caddisfly larvae spinning silk to build intricate shells around themselves, to ferocious dragonfly nymphs hunting tadpoles with their hydrostatic jaw - come experience a hidden world. We'll use nets to take samples from the pond and identification keys to learn what we've found. We'll then use magnifiers to take a closer look. Prepare to be amazed! 

Please come dressed for the outdoors. 

The course starts at 6pm but the reserve will be open for picnics and exploring from 5pm. Please check in at the office on arrival. 

We are committed to keeping our visitors, staff and volunteers safe. Please DO NOT attend if you are unwell, or testing positive for an infectious illness, such as COVID-19. Your consideration is hugely appreciated.

Please note the centre is accessible by public transport with regular buses (including connection to Didcot Parkway railway station) serving Milton Park, a few minutes walk from the centre. what3words///unloads.latter.laces
