Bird Spotting Walk
Saturday, 10th May - 08:00 - 10:30hrs
At last there are visible signs of spring, so why not come and join Paul Matson - a keen and experienced birdwatcher as he leads a 2.5 hour walk through the glorious heathland on Black Down NT. Hopefully, you will see some heathland specialist birds such as Woodlark, Stonechat, Dartford Warbler and possibly Crossbill. Also some summer migrants and maybe Cuckoo.
It will be a slow walk of around 4-5 km with a steepish path of 200m from the car park to the main path but the land is undulating after that and should be a pleasant and worthwhile walk - hopefully in some spring sunshine.
Cost: £12

Controlling the Skies & the Aircraft that Fly!
Thursday, May 1st - 19:30 - 21:00hrs
Have you ever wondered when looking up and seeing the many aircraft criss-crossing the sky, just who is guiding and keeping them safe as they journey on their way to different destinations?
Meet Phil Holt, who will share his experiences of being an air traffic controller for almost 40 years. His talk will cover all the aspects of this high-intensity profession including the many changes and innovations that have taken place in that time, the people he has worked with in the different units around the UK and there will be a few amusing stories along the way.
So why not come and join us for what should be a very informative and interesting evening.
