Queer Ecology Walk at Camley Street Natural Park
Did you know that scientists often struggle to find male woodlice, that male trees can turn female, or that many of London’s birds partner up into same-sex couples?
‘Queer Ecology’ aims to challenge what we think of as being ‘natural’ or ‘unnatural’ and celebrates diversity in all life. Join Connor the Ecologist and Sixto-Juan Zavala, founder of Queer Botany, on a guided nature walk through Camley Street Natural Park to explore the diverse and unusual lifecycles found in the 'unnatural' plants and animals right outside your doorstep. You’ll learn how to use a hand lens to identify common species of plants and invertebrates and gain a new fascination with the natural world.
This gentle tour around the park invites all curious minds interested in meeting others, learning identification skills, and seeing nature from a new perspective.
Time: 10:30 BST
