Nature Group

The Nature Group frequently organise outings to nature reserves and other areas of interest, usually within the surrounding area. 'Nature' encompasses all aspects of the landscape, from animals, birds and insects, to plants, trees, fungi and the macroscopic world.

If you have an interest in the natural world then the Nature Group will have something to interest you, and interacting with other members of the group will help develop your photographic skills.

Check out this page and the bulletins for upcoming trips and/or contact the nature club coordinator to register your interest and find out more.

Next Meeting 2024/25 Season

22nd October - Nature Group Visit to Batsford Arboretum

Janice and Karin are planning a visit to Batsford Arboretum to photograph Autumn colour on Tuesday 22nd October. Meet at 10am in the carpark.

There is also a Falconry there but at an additional cost. 3 flying displays per day although jesses are visable on the birds. Also an opportunity to photograph static birds. Janice and Karin don't plan to visit the Falconry but it is an additional option for anyone wishing to do so.

All details of both on the websites:-

Batsford Arboretum  https://batsarb.co.uk

Falconry  https://www.cotswold-falconry.co.uk

There is a lovely café there but it tends to get quite busy so I would suggest meeting there at 12.00. Also picnic facilities are available.

If the weather is unsuitable for our visit I will post a cancellation on WhatsApp Outings and a Bulletin. The Arboretum closes in high wind conditions.

Please let Janice and Karin know if you would like to come along.
