Birdwatching Group 2022 23

The Birdwatching group is a friendly, active and enthusiastic mix of birdwatchers of varying abilities and experience. We welcome new members and visitors to all our events, whether they consider themselves interested beginners or more experienced birdwatchers; members are always happy to help others who want to learn more about identification or use of optics. The group provides an indoor and outdoor programme throughout the year. A monthly illustrated newsletter is provided at all indoor meetings and by email.
