The darker nights of autumn are owling season, and you can come too!
Join me for a special bird ringing demonstration, as we head out into the fields to catch up with the some of the most charismatic birds in Britain. Over the last couple of years, we’ve specialised in ringing adult owls as an important way of monitoring the health and success of the local population. As part of this session, you’ll learn all about these amazing birds and the work we do monitoring them, be able to watch them through thermal scopes and see them up close as they get ringed.
No owl, no fee – get your money back if no owl is caught!
