Its been a busy few weeks, finishing with some schools and pupils and making a start with others but we managed to grab some time to head out as a family and do some exploring at the newly opened Brockholes Nature Reserve http://www.brockholes.org/about.
Amongst our finds were a giant foxglove...
A piece of wood that looked like it could have been a weapon but was actually used to film the local wildlife, look out Charlie Hamilton James!!!
We completed the spring nature trail...
...and finally found a woodlouse which led to great excitement for at least one of the party!
Sadly the last minibeast on the list, the shield bug, eluded us, so watch out...we'll be back!
Only 6 sleeps til the end of term and lots of time to explore together, but maybe not as together as this...
