KINGS DYKE NATURE RESERVE – SPRING 2021 Spring at Kings Dyke Nature Reserve: reserve manager, Philip Parker, updates us on what’s been happening at the former clay pit. As we head into summer, Philip Parker, manager of our Kings Dyke Nature Reserve, looks back on spring’s highlights. Spring was slow to reach King’s Dyke this year.

In April, we would usually have started butterfly and dragonfly transects (a set walking route along which the number of different butterflies or dragonflies are recorded), but hardly any were to be seen. However, with the weather finally turning warmer towards the end of May, spring blooms and early summer flowers have come out all at once resulting in an extraordinarily beautiful display.
