About the event

In the morning we will explore the geology and fossils of the quarry walls. After lunch we will look at the wide variety of flora and fauna to be found in the quarry with up to five species of orchid and a range of animals. We hope to see reptiles & amphibians, dragonflies, butterflies and day-flying moths and, with luck, green tiger beetles, lunar hornet moths and more.
