Walks, Talks, Retreats & Courses
Ever wondered what the dawn chorus sounds like? Want to identify common birds near where you live?
My walks and training sessions listed below are an ideal way of getting out early (or late), hearing the onset of spring, and learning who's who in the bird world. I am also offering retreats available in the Forest of Dean and Exmoor, allowing you to have some time away and immerse yourself with nature. Get in touch if you would like to book privately.
