The Bexley group of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds is by far and away the largest wildlife/nature group in the Borough, so encouraging its members and other local residents to take a keener interest in the value of local sites and their protection is a key issue. To deliver on that objective, a series of bird walks to a variety of sites and habitats in Bexley has been arranged for the coming months.
