Description

About the event Over the long dark days and icy nights of winter, the hedgerows have been imperceptibly preparing for the new year. On this walk we'll go looking for new growth and green shoots. Nature Spotting events are a monthly volunteer-led informal and friendly walk, where you can meet like-minded people. None of us are experts, but we share our knowledge and love for nature. Each month is a different theme. The walk starts and ends outside our Nature Centre, which has a café, shop, toilet and baby changing facilities and our accessible Nature Garden with Sand Martin bird hide. The walk starts promptly at 10am, so arrive by 9.45am to get parked and use the facilities, if required. We aim to be back at the nature centre by 11.15am and you are welcome to join us for a drink in the café together afterwards. Book your place at https://www.nottinghamshirewildlife.org/events. However, spaces are limited, so please let us know if you can't make it as we will likely have a waiting list. Please note that whilst the walk itself is not charged, parking fees apply. This is waived for NWT members, Attenborough volunteers and staff who have previously registered their vehicles. For more information, see our parking page.
