The Wonders of Bird Migration  -  John Buckingham

Birds make some incredible seasonal journeys. In the UK we sit on an important flyway for many migrant species, some are summer and others are winter visitors.  

Many are on passage, stopping off with us as part of their awe-inspiring flights.  Which birds migrate?  Where do they go and how do they accomplish these amazing feats of endurance?  These and other questions will be answered during John’s fascinating and well-illustrated talk. 

A Zoom link will be sent to members nearer the time.
