About

WORKSHOP CONTENT & LEARNING OUTCOMES

Evening walk to see and hear Crepuscular Nightjars-Summer migrants to the UK which are known for their "churring" at sunset, also in the area Dartford Warbler, Woodcock, Stonechat, Wood Lark, Buzzard, CHiffchaff, Blackcap, Marsh Tit and possible Goshawk. Also Adder, Common Lizard and Fallow Deer, bring binoculars if you have them (have the odd spare pair), also headtorch and midge spray!

Will walk around Burton Common to take in its Flora and Fauna and share knowledge, then later in the evening at dusk look out for the Nightjars-there are at least 8 territories at Burton-so in with a very good chance.
