We are a group of professional and amateur naturalists with an interest in the natural world from plants to bugs, mammals, birds and frogs. We want to be joined by children and parents/carers with a similar love of collecting conkers, pressing flowers, looking under logs and grubbing around in the dirt. Do you fit the bill?
