Visiting an outcrop in the Bowland sandstone and shale and som

Our annual pilgrimage to this stunning RSPB reserve. What awaits us this time?

A talk by Sonja Ludwig, the RSPB's Species and Habitats Officer for the Forest of Bowland.

A look at birds' most important feature - their feathers, in all their glory and in all their forms and aberrations.

The group's first visit to this fascinating reserve in the heart of suburban Leeds.

We're off to the seaside to see what we can find in this renowned area for wintering species.

We had to cancel our planned visit to Pennington in 2021 so hopefully we'll make it this time. There are lots of species which call the Flash home so we should be rewarded for our patience.

Clapham to Austwick and return.  A short social walk to include a cafe stop if possible.
