Have you ever wondered what prompts people to take up field-glasses and rise at dawn? Birders and non-birders will enjoy this energising and inspirational talk by David Lindo (a.k.a. The Urban Birder) about his adventures in urban settings and the fascinating – and sometimes surprising - wildlife he discovered there. You will be amazed, intrigued, and laugh out loud at David’s incredible tales. Expect to leave feeling inspired to grab a pair of binoculars, rush to the nearest bit of open sky and "look up"! Not to be missed. Early bird tickets available now.
