Whether you've never used binoculars before, or want to know how to tell some common species apart, this event will guide you through the basics, and allow you the opportunity to ask those questions you've always wanted to ask.

Led by RSPB staff, we will explore the reserve's trails and hides, while learning how to recognise birds by sight and sound.

No experience needed. Bring your own binoculars or borrow some of ours. Please wear weather appropriate clothing.
