Ouse Burn Way: Dragonfly Walk
Join local entomologist, Neha Mujumdar, to celebrate the amazing dragonflies and damselflies of the North East.
This beginner-friendly walk will take place at Woolsington Parish Ponds. This local site is a mosaic of different habitats like woodland, freshwater ponds, and grasslands supporting an array of invertebrates. It is also a popular spot for watching dragonflies like Banded Demoiselle, Common Hawker and the Four-Spotted Chaser.
