A morning in the Buriton Chalk Pits, with experts showing some of the wildlife that can be found.

As a follow-up to successful Bio-Blitz in previous years, Rangers from the Queen Elizabeth Country Park will be hosting a fun event in the Buriton Chalk Pits on Saturday 17th June: from 10.30am to 1.30pm.

Experts will show people the range of flowers and wildlife that can be found in and around the Chalk Pits Nature Reserve.

There are also plans to have a ‘sensory table’ with things like tree bark as well as food stuffs that can be made from plants such as jams etc.

The pond at the top (south) of the site will also be featured along with other activities for all the family.

Tea, coffee and cakes will be provided – and all is free of charge.  Meet at the old limeworks truck.
