Join Art and Energy and botanist and bryologist Tim Purches & ecologist, entomologist and artist John Walters for a guided wildlife walk on Dartmoor.
10am - 12.30pm at Venford Reservoir, Dartmoor
Suggested donation £5 per person
We'll be walking along the pipeline path, taking a steady pace as we look for mosses with Tim and wildlife with John. Tim will help us identify mosses and liverworts - you may like to bring a hand lens or magnifier. John is a font of all knowledge for all types of wildlife and in particular minibeasts (invertebrates) and we'll be looking in mossy holes and corners for bugs and signs of wildlife using moss for their homes.
The pipeline path will take us through the surrounding woodland, it is a natural surface path which may have stones and uneven areas.
Meet from 9.40am - ready to walk at 10am
Meet at the car park at the north end of Venford Reservoir, just to the west of the dam, free parking here.
