From Kelvin Jones, BTO Wales Development Officer -
Once again this spring we are planning on holding some member and
volunteer days at various venues around Wales. These will be relaxed
events where we will update participants on BTO’s activities across
Wales, provide some free training, a friendly quiz, and (weather
permitting) a bit of birding. They are open to all existing members and
volunteers and anybody new who wants to get involved with the BTO for
the first time.
Saturday 24th March, Dyfi Osprey Centre, Machynlleth
Sunday 25th March, RSPB Conwy.
Saturday 14th April, Pembrey Church Hall, Pembrey, Carmarthenshire
Saturday 21st April, Chirk Castle, Chirk
All events start at 10am and tea and coffee will be available from 9:30am. Bring suitable clothing for an outdoor walk.
Further details and bookings please contact your Regional Representative or the BTO Cymru office. Prior booking essential to make sure we have enough tea and coffee.
