    Fortnightly
  • Length of course: 3 terms. Autumn (5 Weeks), Spring (5 Weeks), Summer (5 Weeks)
  • Number of places: 75
  • Start date: 11 October 2024
  • Description:

    We welcome novice and experienced birdwatchers on our all-day visits to reserves throughout East Anglia, and occasional Zoom lectures. Day trips take place every other Friday in termtime; we meet beforehand for coffee at or near the venue. Members can share sightings and photos after each outing. We encourage car sharing (passengers contribute to travel costs). Sometimes overnight visits are arranged in the UK. Social events include occasional club lunches and a coffee morning for new members before the autumn term. We are keen to share our knowledge and enthusiasm, and have a buddy scheme for new joiners. We send out our programme before the start of each term. The annual subscription of £2 per member, for administration costs, must be paid on application. Some reserves charge an entry fee if you are not a member of the organisation that runs it, e.g. RSPB, and there may be parking charges.
