📸  So many great sightings again this week! If we have to pick one, then I'll go with the chilled Barred owl that Anya spotted during yesterday's EwA biodiversity walk at the Fells. Here's Joe's record of our friend...

📅 EwA Coming Public Events

This Sunday, we will host a one-off forest exploration walk for our guests from the Urban Nature Walk community » I am sure that'll be the beginning of a great relationship. Exciting!

EwA Field Events » Check our public field events on the EwA Calendar, we have a great walk this coming Saturday with Bill and Joe in the Fells [ See EwA events calendar to register » ] Don't miss great opportunities to follow the rhythm of the season in our local habitats and of its wildlife!. Space is limited for all our field events. Wildlife ethics is important to us and we seek to avoid putting pressure on natural habitats that large gatherings unavoidably do. We are asking our audience to register-and-commit to avoid no-shows (or cancel when you know you can't come)

■ EwA Fieldwork (& Resources)

We are monitoring phenology and entomofauna weekly at all sites. Our biodiversity and habitat documentation fieldwork is also as healthy as ever thanks to our group of core citizen scientists who simply rock!
