Autumn Bird Watch
S
unday October 18, 10am: Come and see what’s on the move
in the bird world, the last of the summer and first of the
winter! Ventnor is a great place to see huge numbers of swallows
and martins passing through along with warblers, flycatchers
wagtails and pipits, even migratory birds of prey such as osprey
and hobby; and there’s always the chance of finding a rarity or
two! We don’t know what the weather will be doing on the 18th,
but take a chance on what might be!
Starting at the Landslip/Nansen Hill car park (free, but limited
spaces) , no booking is required. Contact Ian Boyd on 07834
