This is part of the City Nature Challenge organised by the Lichfield Wildlife Group. We are trying to record as many plants, birds, invertebrates, etc. as possible. All you need is the iNaturalist app on your phone and wildlife experts will be available on the day to help you with your recording. So why not come along for some fun and help us find out what species call Pipe Green home!

Meet at the Football Field car park.
