Join us as we focus on the wildlife which can be found on the canals and around the museum

On Wednesday 29 May we will be focusing on What Lies Beneath and on Thursday 30 May we will be looking at what F/lies Above including moths and birds.

What Lies Beneath:

Come and see what strange objects have been found at the bottom of our canals before taking a closer look at the wildlife which lies beneath the surface with our underwater camera. At the end of the day, we’ll be setting moth traps ready for the morning discovery!

What Flies Above:

We’ll be looking at our moth traps to see which types visited the museum overnight (before releasing them back into the wild again!). Then it’s binoculars at the ready to take a closer inspection of which birds live on the canals.
