For Wales Nature Week, June 29 to July 7, Tenby Town Council is having a FIT Count Challenge during the week to encourage people to go outside and take a close look at a flower!

A FIT count is a Flower Insect Timed count and involves someone going outside to find a flower and spending ten minutes watching it to see how many insects land or sit on the flower during that time.

The flowers you can choose from are dandelion, buttercup, hawthorn, blackberry, lavender, hogweed, common or greater knapweeds, white clover, ragwort or white dead-nettle.
