Join Nature Recovery Network’s Basic Bird Identification walk with experienced local birders, Allen Stevens and Sally Taylor. The walk will be the fifth in a series of bird surveying opportunities for NRN birding beginners. Those of you who are not already members of NRN, we'd love you to join (£10 per year) in order to enjoy this workshop and many others for free. If you'd rather not join just yet, we ask you to pay £5 for this Bird Walk. This is partly because although we all give our services for free, NRN has significant costs to do what is is doing for our local nature. Also, these workshops are usually oversubscribed and we have found that people sign up and then don't turn up, depriving someone else of the opportunity. (To join NRN see below).

The walks will take place at the change of each season with one of NRN's local birding experts. They will be at a relaxed pace with regular stops, so are suitable for all ages. The main aim is to help anyone who is interested in getting a bit more familiar with basic bird recognition, song/calls and the best places to spot them.

Walks will start at 09.00am at the Fishponds Car Park and finish by 11.00. Anyone who can only do an hour to finish at the half-way stop. Please bring binoculars if you have them.

We look forward to sharing some time with you in the Great Outdoors!
