About this experience
What to expect
Have a quick safety briefing at the meeting point and start a walking route that has been adapted for the season. Visit a number of host plants that are habitats for regularly seen creatures. Take the opportunity to capture photographs of some nocturnal creatures
Find White-lipped Tree Frogs and Northern Stony Creek Frogs. Marvel at busy spiders such as Net-casting Spiders, Garden Orb-weavers, and Huntsmans. See critters that only come out at night and usually go unseen.
