What You'll Be Doing
During the event, we will be walking around the reservoirs to carry out a butterfly survey and check reptile refugia mats along the way. This hands-on activity will help us record species data essential for monitoring the site and creating improved management plans. The recorded data will be uploaded to iRecord and shared with the Local Environment Record Centre to contribute to regional conservation efforts.
