Wetland Bug Hunt
Sat 5 April – Sun 1 June 2025
Dive into the wonderful world of wetland insects with Lloyd and his new friend Dart the dragonfly.
Lloyd and friends have joined our own cast of wetland minibeasts.
Follow the trail to help Lloyd and tour guide Dart the dragonfly find Lloyd's friends and family and make their way to the bug hotel. Strike a yoga pose like Cornea the Butterfly, weave a web like Julie the Spider and form your own ant conga like Queen Libby the Ant.
Participating in the Lloyd of the Flies Wetland Bug Hunt activities is included in the price of a WWT admission ticket or is free to WWT members.
Download the app
Families can also ‘shrink down’ to fly size and see the world through an insect’s eyes, by downloading Aardman’s augmented reality app: Lloyd of the Flies AR Bug Hunt. Before you visit, download the app for free on Google Play or App store. Search for Bug Hunt. You will be prompted to input a location code. This will be available in the centre when you visit.
