The Women's Wildlife Group invite you to visit the RSPB's Aylesbeare nature reserve - spend the morning on Aylesbeare Common followed by lunch at The Diggers Rest in Woodbury Salterton.  Meet at 10 am in the reserve car park. Please wear suitable clothing and footwear.

Aylesbeare is an RSPB heathland reserve and is nationally important for its resident Dartford warblers which we may be lucky enough to see. Also to be seen are stonechats, yellowhammers, linnets and pipits. Four of the six British reptiles occur here - adders, grass snakes, common lizards and slow worms. More species of butterfly have been recorded here than on any other RSPB nature reserve.

Free take part, but  booking is essential, lunch is optional (at your own cost).

Please email goshawk499@gmail.com if you would like to come along and to book for the lunch if you want to have the meal as well.
