Just a reminder that Anthony Overs will be leading a bird walk designed for beginners or less experienced members this Saturday.  If you, or someone who know, ar interested, please contact Anthony asap.  Details follow:

Saturday 12 October – Australian National Botanic Gardens – beginners’ outing

This morning walk will be aimed specifically to help beginners and new members identify birds and to learn about their behaviour and calls. The Botanic Gardens are especially suitable for such an outing, as they allow the opportunity to observe a range of local bush birds in a variety of habitats. Anthony Overs will lead this outing, which will consist of a stroll through this lovely part of Canberra for a couple of hours. Meet at 9.15am at the ANBG bus shelter. Registration is essential; please provide your name and mobile phone number, as well as an emergency contact name and number. Book your place with Anthony (0419202155, or m("gmail.com","anthony.overs");" target="_blank" style="color:blue;text-decoration:underline">), who will be happy to discuss whether this outing is suitable for you. Please make sure to bring your binoculars and ACT field guide. If you do not have binoculars, please let me know as COG can supply you with a pair to use on the day.

Note that the aim of the walk is to introduce you to bird-watching, not bird photography, so please leave your camera at home.

Thanks

Sue Lashko
