UPCOMING WOODLANDS FARM (Shooters Hill) WILDLIFE SURVEYSWe have had a successful week of surveys this week with a great bat survey on Wednesday with a lot of Pipistrelles heard and our busiest bee survey of the year, especially thanks to some thistles!
So we have some more survey dates for your diaries:
Thursday 23rd July, 9.20pm - Bat Survey
Wednesday 12th August, 2pm - Bee Walk
Wednesday 26th August, 8pm - Public Bat Walk. Volunteers required with bat detectors to mingle with group so everyone can hear bats
The Big Butterfly count is also coming up, between 17th July and 9th August. If you fancy a trip down to the farm to record butterflies anytime between those dates I might try organise a date too for a group of us to do a survey, so if can do that I will let you know. Details here: Big Butterfly Count <https://bigbutterflycount.butterfly-conservation.org/>
As usual please let me know if your can attend a survey, especially the bat ones.
Hopefully see you at a survey soon.
