About the event

This evening will get underway with the MWT Bird Group Annual General Meeting (AGM) - all are welcome to attend the meeting, but only MWT members are able to vote.

Following this, Katie Appleby, the Curlew and People Officer for the Game and Wildlife Conservation Trust in Montgomeryshire and North Radnorshire, will be talking about the Curlew Connections Wales project. Katie will shine a light on the findings from the 2024 Curlew breeding season, the use of technology to help conservation work over such a large area, the challenges she faced, and how the team are looking ahead to the 2025 breeding season.

This promises to be an enjoyable evening for any local ornithologists and birders, or indeed anyone keen to find out more about wildlife more generally.

Everyone is welcome, and the entrance fee of £3 includes the talk (free for under 18s), light refreshments, and the opportunity to chat with like-minded folk and the speakers themselves.  We usually have a raffle, so please bring a prize if you are able to (£1 per ticket). We look forward to seeing you there!
