‘Moon Watch’
November’s Full Moon was a Super Moon – closer to Earth than at any time since January 1948
Fascinating Fungi
Fungi are Nature’s recyclers and Autumn is the season when they are at their best – eight Discoverers families enjoyed a most interesting event based at the Holly Lodge Centre
Bat Watch
Our bat watch had to be postponed a week this year, thanks to bad weather. The session was led as usual by Philip Briggs of the London Bat Group and Bat Conservation Trust.
Spring Birds Trail
Our base was the Holly Lodge Centre’s Nature Trail. After a brief introduction, the group set off with Hugh Bradshaw.
‘Bones and Feathers’ Workshop
Ten families celebrated the first day of Spring, learning about the rich wild life of Richmond Park with Susanna Ramsey and the Nature Collection

We had excellent weather for this popular annual event, calm and warm. This meant that there were plenty of bats around in the evening twilight
