Gedling borough residents are being encouraged to get out and enjoy nature by taking part in  a series of wildlife walks at Netherfield Lagoons.

Gedling Conservation Trust was formed to look after the Lagoons and most weekends experts escort visitors around the nature reserve and share their knowledge about  the local wildlife.

Here are some of the walks taking place over the next few weeks:

Sunday, May 21 -Warbler Walk

9:30 am – 12:30 pm

There are ten species of warbler breeding at the Lagoons (if you still include Cetti’s warbler). Come along and see if you can see or hear them all, they will all be singing. Learn to distinguish between the lookalikes by their calls.

Meet at the footbridge at 14.00hrs.

Sunday, May 28 – Wildlife Walk 

Come and see what wildlife the Lagoons have to offer. Migrant birds will still be going through and there should be some butterflies about.

Meet at the footbridge at 09.30hrs.

Sunday, June 4 – Orchid Walk 

 Hopefully there should be up to five species of orchid in flower, although some may be earlier than others.

Meet at the footbridge at 09.30hrs.

Sunday, June 11 – Birdcount 

Come and help us count the birds on the site. Its a good way to brush up on bird id and meet some fellow enthusiasts.

Meet at the end of Teal Close, opposite the CEM warehouse.
