About the event

This event takes place at the beginning of the survey period for this year's GWCT Big Farmland Bird Count (BFBC), which runs between 7 - 23 February 2025. We will be going out on farm to observe and learn to spot different species of farmland birds in the habitats they typically occupy, including in flight and by ear.


FWAG East advisors will lead the walk and be on hand to discuss the best habitat creation and feeding approaches to support farmland birds and offer advice on how these approaches may be funded. We will also go over the Big Farmland Bird Count survey method and form.


Tea, coffee and bacon rolls will be served and guests will come away with a laminated bird ID guide - ready to use for your own BFBC bird survey!


Please bring binoculars if you have them. There will be a degree of walking involved…
