Nick will highlight some of the incredible flora and fauna that can be found along the river. We’ll discover just how rich the habitats are along the river, throughout the town, and how they’re improving due to the conservation work currently going on from human and beaver help.
This event is for all those interested in learning more about our town’s amazing wealth of wildlife and for all ages and levels of experience.
