A variety of nature-themed events will take place in Wanstead Park and on Wanstead Flats this month for the annual Wanstead Wildlife Weekend.
“The Wren Wildlife and Conservation Group was founded in 1972, and we’ve spent the last 52 years helping to promote and protect the wildlife of the Wanstead area and its surrounds, and helping to bring the people of East London closer to nature. This month, we continue that tradition by inviting you to discover what’s living on your doorstep!” said a spokesperson.
The weekend of activities begins on 22 June, with an early morning moth trap reveal, followed by a workshop on bees, a lichen walk, a spider hunt, pond dipping and a butterfly trail for children. A live display of British wildlife will also be on show at an information tent by the park’s tea hut.
