Birding

Status:Active, open to new members
Coordinator:
Group email: Birding group
When: On Thursday mornings
Meets eleven times each year

The objectives of the group are to visit local areas for birding. We usually see about 100 bird species during the year, including wintering species, local breeding summer visitors, and migrants passing through. Members of the Group share identification tips; learn to identify birds by song and discuss the observed bird behaviour. The objective is to help members improve their birding skills, whether in the garden, or for example, on holiday. The Group meets 11 times a year, see programme for details. The meetings are outdoors, at locations generally close to Oundle with one or two longer excursions. The visits usually involve a walk of about two miles, on level ground, though it may sometimes be muddy! Members are expected to have binoculars. Please contact group leader if you wish to join the group.
