Festival Of Nature: Wild About Chew

Join the Festival of Nature and Bristol Water to explore the sights and sounds of Chew Valley Lake, and discover an internationally important site for wildlife just minutes from Bristol. Peer down the telescope and see how many species of birds you can find, get a closer view of the aquatic life lurking beneath the lake surface and check out what bugs are hiding in the undergrowth!

With stalls from the likes of Avon Wildlife Trust, National Trust and Lakeside Optics, and a full programme of wildlife walks and hands-on activities, there's something for all ages. Meet the experts, find out where your water comes from, or just relax and take a stroll along the lakeshore.

Bristol Water is a major sponsor of the Festival of Nature. Wild About Chew is part of the bigger, better and wilder Festival of Nature 2014, with events across the West of England from May to July, and the Wild Weekend on Bristol's Harbourside on 14 and 15 June. See www.festivalofnature.org for the full programme of events.
