The Campaign for the Farmed Environment (CFE) and the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) would like you to join us for a farmland bird walk that I'll be leading at Caswell Farm in Oxfordshire, with kind permission from Richard Matthews.
The walk is taking place at 10am on Wednesday 21st October at Caswell Farm, Brize Norton, Carterton, Oxfordshire, OX18 3NJ.
You'll be able to learn about the different winter bird food mixes and how they can cater for the needs of the different species of birds on your farm and also find out about the new Countryside Stewardship scheme and the options available that will benefit farmland birds, wildlife and wild pollinators.
