Langholm Primary School Afterschool Group

Youngsters from Langholm Primary after-school group have been enjoying weekly visits up onto the moor throughout April and May, discovering creatures such as palmate newts and Golden ringed dragonfly nymphs. The group has had great fun exploring the Tarras river and the ditches and puddles which held more life than anyone had expected.

This beautiful Emperor moth unexpectedly joined us in the minibus on the way home; it was released safely back on to the moor.
