Bird Ringing Demo

Model Aircraft Flying Zone

what3words\\\dates.jelly.over

Facilitated by Bill Haines of the West London Birding Group. Bill has over 25 years of experience with bird ringing and has worked for the RSPB, WWT and BTO during his career as an ornithologist. The ringing demonstration will be drop in (join us whenever you can!), but there's a higher chance of seeing interesting things earlier in the morning - so do keep that in mind. We will have a central hub on the Model Aircraft Flying Zone (just north of the central copse), and I have included a what3words location for you all (see above).
