The Bog Squad at the Scottish Birdfair

12/5/2014

This weekend the Bog Squad, as part of Butterfly Conservation took part in the Scottish Birdfair at Hopetoun House in Edinburgh, which is organised and run by RSPB. The event had a great atmosphere with plenty to see, learn and experience for the whole family, e.g. kids could learn how to turn into bats, people could get close up to a 'live' nuthatch at the ringing tent, there was opportunity to listen to interesting talks, e.g.  about ghost moths and of course there where displays and exhibitions a whole range of conservation organisations..

We spread the word about the Bog Squad and enjoyed a whole day talking and enthusing young and old people about Butterflies & Moths.

We also exchanged notes with Sustrans who are currently developing a Volunteer project, called Greener Greenways, which looks to create wildlife corridors along their national cycle routes.


All in all a great day!
