Bug Hunting

June 25, 2021

Our Beavers and Cubs went on a Bug Hunt last night!


Amongst the 20+ species they discovered, from caterpillars to spiders to weevils, was a stag beetle! This is really exciting as they are becoming very scarce due to habitat destruction and were thought to be extinct (or nearly) in Lincolnshire. Stag beetles are one of our biggest beetles…. with quite powerful jaws!


We only searched under half the campsite, so were wondering who else is hiding in the other half!
