About the event
An opportunity for adults to have a go at dipping in the lake at Whisby to look for dragonfly nymphs, followed by a walk to find the adults.
If you have always wanted to have a go at pond dipping but thought it was just for kids then this is your chance to have a go. We will spend time dipping in the lake and identifying some of the freshwater creatures we catch then finish the evening with a stroll to watch spectacular dragonflies dancing in the air above and around our lakes.
Where an event is dependent on the weather, we may have to make changes or, on rare occasions due to extreme weather, cancel to ensure the safety of all.
