Ever spotted a blue butterfly and didn’t know what species it was? Want to take part in The Big Butterfly Count but don’t know your Painted Ladies from your Peacocks?

Join Parks Trust experts on an introductory butterfly identification stroll, while also helping us work out what species are living in Ouse Valley Park. The results of this survey will be included in our exciting new Wetland Arc Project, which is shining a spotlight on how humans and wildlife move about and interact with parks along the north of Milton Keynes.

This walk is suitable for all ages and is the perfect introduction to Citizen Science. No booking required.

To take part, meet us at 1pm at New Bradwell Allotment car park, off Newport Road (What3Words location ///float.ivory.rings).
