Creepy crawly - Ned Allman, nine, with a bug
THE weird and wonderful were unearthed by eager youngsters at Norsey Woods in Billericay.
Children revelled in yesterday's bugs and beasties discovery session at the forest, off Outwood Common Road. Many young people also made bug boxes to take home.
The event was part of Basildon Council's school holiday programme to educate and entertain.
