Bugs, birds and beasts roam the grounds of Sherborne Park Estate, but it’s been hard to know exactly what kinds of wildlife call the estate home – until now!

If you dare to discover the secret wildlife hiding in the depths of Sherborne, join the Sherborne Bioblitz on Thursday 26 July 2018. Guests are invited to take themselves on a self-guided walk around a route not usually open to the public and discover the many mammals, birds and mini-beasts that the site has to offer.

With no experience necessary, young explorers can also get stuck into river dipping, bug hunting, arts and crafts, a scavenger hunt, talks from local experts, small mammal trapping, and guided moth and bird walks.
