Join us this Sunday, 23rd for our birdwatching event. We'll be at @daventrycp between 9.30 and 12noon equipped with telescopes, binoculars and identification guides to help point out the various wildlife. #birdwatching
A date for your diary. Looks great fun for the family. 🦇🦉
Join us on Wednesday 25th August for our first outdoor show. Ranger Rick will need help from the audience to look after the animals he meets, including Owl, Otter, Spider, Heron and Bat🦉🦇🕷️No booking required.
There's nothing better than taking some time to #ConnectWithNature listening to the sounds of nature.
This #MentalHealthAwarenessWeek we’re asking everybody to #ConnectWithNature. Spend just a little time listening to bird song, stopping to smell the flowers, or watching a busy bee! 💚🌸🐝
We are very lucky to have so many lovely parks and open spaces to visit locally.
There are a variety of local parks in your area to walk, play and get fit, including Daventry Country Park, Abington Park in Northampton and Towcester Watermeadows. Find out your local park at: bit.ly/WNlocalparks #WestNorthantsServices
Over the last year, outdoor spaces and places have mattered to us more than ever. 🌼 This spring join us for the #GBSpringClean and show some love for those special places that helped us though lockdown... Gbspringclean.org 💚

We're delighted that the lookout has been included in the footpath improvements. We look forward to welcoming everyone back to the park to enjoy all the improvements and we thank you for your patience while the work is being completed. @ranger_dcp @Love_Daventry
A few ideas to do at home to connect with nature.
We know that nature is good for us but it can be hard to know how to connect with wildlife at home. We've got some great resources to keep the whole family entertained 👉 wildlifetrusts.org/kids-and-… 🤸🏡🐞
Unfortunately the Council have had to make the tough decision to close the car park and play area to assist with social distancing and reduce numbers at our lovely park. #StayAtHome

Quick heads up to anyone considering Daventry this weekend; we have had to cancel for 1 more weekend to let the park recover from the ongoing work. Can you spread the word to anyone who might have been considering coming over to the country park. We hope to be back on 14th March!
