The Natural History group has outings or zoom meetings on the fourth Wednesday of each month except December. For outings we meet in the morning at the location of the field visit, details of which are emailed to members of the group about two weeks before the visit, and usually end with a meal at a local pub. Members are requested to advise the coordinator if they are coming on the trip. Visits may be postponed if bad weather is expected.
Previous meetings have included bird-watching field visits, looking at chalk downland, birdsong in the New Forest; and spotting butterflies at a Butterfly Conservation reserve.
This was the very successful joint trip to the huge hole in the ground which is Havant Thicket Reservoir now under construction by Portsmouth Water and funded in part by Southern water near Rowlands Castle.
Shame no more could come as it was an excellent presentation and a fascinating visit on a glorious September day, ‘
