MEETINGS: Once or twice a month on various days to minimise recurrent clashes with members' other commitments.

We are always happy to welcome new members. None of us claim to be experts but try to puzzle our way to the names of the organisms we find. If you are interested in joining us or want more information please contact us.

We usually meet at the Co-op car park, Church Road, New Mills at 10 am. The number on walks is limited only by having enough seats in cars. Attendance varies with members’ diaries, inclinations and the weather (we are sensible people, not masochists).

Come and join us. There's no limit to the number on the mailing list.

NEXT VISIT

Sunday 29 March 2026 (9.30 am start)
RSPB Burton Mere

We will travel to RSPB Burton Mere (non-members £7) to explore the varied habitats of the reserve. Burton Mere Wetlands straddles the border between England and Wales with a mosaic of freshwater wetland habitats, mixed farmland and woodland. The area is bursting with wildlife, hosting Avocets, egrets, harriers, Redshanks, Grey Herons and Kingfishers.

Please note that we intend an earlier start than usual. If attending, please be at New Mills Coop car park for a 9.30am start.
