Discover swifts that spend most of their lives in the air, foxes that roam the Palace Grounds after dark, bats that hunt insects at night along the River Nanny, peregrine falcons soaring near the cathedral, colourful peacock butterflies near the old railway line, busy common carder bees, trout in the river, and even giant hogweed, a plant with an important story to tell. Perfect for curious children and families who would like to see their town through the eyes of nature.
