We’ll be holding a morning visit to the Knepp Estate (just off the A24 at Dial Post) on Weds 13 May, meeting there at 10am and walking for a shortish distance on the footpaths, guided by a couple of our wildlife experts. We should be seeing the nesting White Storks, as well as hopefully hearing and possibly seeing Nightingales and maybe even a Turtle Dove, plus any other wildlife attracted to this excellent place, so do bring your binoculars.
The visit will last for around a couple of hours. There is parking on site, and there is a cafe and toilet facilities. From 1 May, there will be a £3 parking charge for up to 3 hours, and payable by card only (although this will be refunded if you happen to spend more than £20 in the shop etc). This is a “get yourself there” visit but if anybody would need a lift, please contact David at d.bettiss@btinternet.com and we’ll see what we can arrange.
Other dates for May:
Thursday 7 May – Monthly work party at Warren Pond 10am
Saturday 9 May – Pill box opening 1030am to 3pm
Sunday 17 May – Beach Clean 11am
