“The Decline of Swifts and how we can encourage them back”

​

After our wonderful Summer Show, we are delighted to start our autumn talks with Peter Renwick on "The Decline of Swifts and how we can encourage them back" on Thursday 8th October at 7:30 for 7:45 pm in Warnford Village Hall. 

​

These beautiful and charismatic birds, perfectly adapted to a life in the air, have declined across Hampshire and the UK by around 70% over the past 30 years. This decline has been caused entirely by loss of nest sites in our homes. 

 

Peter is a local conservationist from Meonstoke and will tell us more about these wonderful birds and how all of us can help them survive and grow again!

 

This is such a beautiful bird species that needs everyone’s help to recover – did you know they are the fastest birds in level flight, with an impressive top speed of 69mph!

 

Put it in your diary now!
