Your Kingswood Spring Watch guide

Grosvenor Hall is known for it’s hundreds of varieties of trees, thanks to the arborist who originally owned the house and we just love watching all those leaves turn green!

At West Runton we get down to the beach as soon as the weather gets warmer and look out for signs of sealife – wales, dolphins and porpoises have been spotted just off the coast

At Peak Venture, we know its springtime when our wild bluebells are in bloom! We also love watching the trees turn green, we've planted over 200 new trees in the past 4 years, all donated by the Woodland Trust.

The lake at Colomendy comes alive in spring with frogs and toads and a kingfisher visits to feed. We also have resident badgers on centre!

Nothing says spring like butterflies and the Norfolk Broads, just a stone's throw from Overstrand Hall is home to a number of rare species.

Northumberland, home to Dukeshouse Wood was described as a "bird watcher's paradise" by the Daily Telegraph and spring migration is an excellent time to see some rare breeds.

The former Earth Centre, Dearne Valley is a perfect location for nature spotting and is home to swans, ducks, snakes, deers, otters, minx, squirrels - even the occasional red squirrel too!

The Isle of Wight is brimming with wildlife  from red squirrels, to foxes, badgers and buzzards

Daffodils

Spring has officially sprung when these bright little flowers appear in parks and gardens from late February to early April.

Snowdrops

These delicate white flowers start popping up as early as January and are sometimes hidden in the snow

Blossom

Keep an eye on the trees down your street, you may start to see blossom. Cherry blossom can be seen as early as December.

Bees

Nothing says spring like the sound of buzzing bees! The first bees you see in March and April are the queens looking for early flowers and a place to set up their colony for the year ahead.

Butterflies

Summer is peak butterfly season, but bright yellow brimstone butterflies can be seen on warm days in March 

Lambs

Baby lambs are born in late winter or early spring so that they have plenty of fresh grass to eat in Spring. Look out for local farms where you can go and visit the baby lambs or even see them being born!
