Song Thrush by Harry Appleyard, Howe Park Wood 30 April 2016

In recent years, a number of Society members have expressed an interest in learning how to identify bird species by sound. Here at last is the opportunity!

A three-part introductory course aimed at Milton Keynes Natural History Society members in April/Mary 2017. Each session will be based at Linford Lakes Nature Reserve and we will also include a visit to nearby Little Linford Wood. By the end of the course attendees should be able to:

• Recognise up to 20 bird species by song alone.
• Distinguish between full bird song and other vocalisations.
• Improve their listening skills.

The course will be delivered by Society Members Peter Garner and Martin Kincaid. There will be no charge for this training course. To reserve a place, or for more information, please contact Martin at mkincaid1971@outlook.com
