SUMMARY:Guided Bird Walks on International Dawn Chorus Day
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate International Dawn Chorus Day on Sunday 3rd May\, we will be hosting two guided bird walks at Stanwick Lakes. \n“Early birds” are invited to join our first walk to hear the wetland birds as they wake up and start the symphony\, while those who prefer a lie-in can come along for a mid-morning stroll to hear which birds have joined the chorus. \nBoth walks will be led by knowledgeable local ornithologists\, who will use their expertise to help you identify the birds by song and by sight. Expect to hear birds that are resident on the wetland\, as well as summer migrants such as warblers and maybe even a cuckoo! \nThe “Early bird” walk will take place between 6am–8am\, followed by a hot drink and breakfast bap in the visitor centre from 8am–8.30am. \nThe “Mid-morning stroll” will start with a hot drink and breakfast bap at 8.30am in the visitor centre\, followed by the walk between 9–11am. \nBinoculars and bird guides will be available to borrow on the day. \nCancellation Policy\nNo refunds will be given unless we need to cancel the walks due to bad weather or illness. In this case\, we will do our best to arrange another date for the walks to take place. \nSuitability Recommendation\nThese walks are suitable for ages 10 and above. \nSpecial Conditions\nThe walks will take place in most weather conditions and may leave the main paths\, so please wear appropriate clothing and footwear.
