Forthcoming Wildlife News and Events for Your Diary.

Sadly summer is over but we can now look forward to the resumption of our indoor meetings. This autumn we have two such meetings:

Wednesday 15th October 2025 - Wild New Zealand - Martin Singleton.

Martin Singleton of the Wickford Wildlife Society will present a talk on the fabulous wildlife of New Zealand. Due to millions of years of isolation in New Zealand’s past, and it being the last large land mass to be colonized by humans, there are many unique types of flora and fauna native to the islands. Originally, New Zealand had very few predator mammals, leading to the increased evolution of flightless birds, including the national bird, the Kiwi. Martin's talk will cover both North and South Island and a few of the many smaller islands and the remarkable flora and fauna to be found here. 

St Andrews Church Hall - meet at 7.45pm for 8.00pm start.

Wednesday 19th November 2025 - The Magic of Moths - Emma Bickford. 

Join moth enthusiast Emma as she reveals the captivating world of the UK’s moths. Drawing on her experiences working in the Cairngorms and with Butterfly Conservation, Emma will introduce the incredible diversity and beauty of these often-overlooked insects. 

St Andrews Church Hall - meet at 7.45pm for 8.00pm start.
