December

The sun was shining and several rare birds paid a visit as a group of farmers, land managers, rangers and ecologists gathered on the Bisterne Estate near Ringwood to get inspiration from the success of the Game & Wildlife Conservation Trust’s wader conservation work in the Avon Valley.

On 30th and 31st October, Julieanne and Katie from the Curlew Connections project were joined by Bangor University Zoology students to conduct the university local field course. With 21 students on day one and 22 on day two, it was a great opportunity to show the students the species and habitats right on their doorstep.
