Brereton Heath Recording Day
We're looking for volunteers to help out with wildlife recording at Brereton Heath. We'll be working in small groups to search for, identify and record native wildlife. Although some knowledge of wildlife would be helpful, you don't need to be an expert to come along.
Brereton Heath is a well established Local Nature Reserve with a mix of diverse habitats including woodland, grassland, heathland and wetland. We hope to observe birds, dragonflies, wildflowers and more.
What you'll be doing
- Looking for wildlife, e.g. bird spotting, searching for invertebrates etc.
- Helping to identify any species found using books and guides or your own knowledge
- Photographing species found to be identified later
- Helping to accurately record this information
*Please note*... this is not a formal workshop or training opportunity, just an opportunity to come along and help out with our surveys in whatever way you can. Although expert knowledge isn't necessary, you'll need to be willing to get stuck in and learn as you go. This event is only suitable for ages 18+.
We will be meeting in the carpark for Brereton Heath Local Nature Reserve. More information on the exact meeting point and what to bring along etc. will also be sent to you ahead of the event - please do check your spam emails if you've not heard from us!
Accessibility: We will be sticking close to footpaths but there may be some rough ground. We will be walking for most of the session, but will be going slowly to record as we go. Please feel free to contact us ahead of the session on info@record-lrc.co.uk or 01244 394514 to discuss any additional needs you may have.
Please make sure you register for this event via Ticket Tailor as there are limited numbers.
