May Bank Holiday Weekend Wildlife Activities at Cream o'Galloway

29-Apr-2009

Fancy finding out more about the wild side of Cream o’ Galloway?

Then join us for some very special wildlife events taking place over the May bank holiday

Sunday May 3rd, Hedgerow Safari

On Sunday 3rd May we are hosting a Hedgerow Safari and Small Mammal Hunt, organised by the Organic Milk Suppliers Cooperative.There’s an amazing variety of plants, mini-beasts, birds and mammals in our hedgerows and an experienced guide will take you on a journey of discovery into this fascinating habitat.

Standard Cream o Galloway entry fees apply but please book in advance for this event.

Monday May 4th, 4.30 am Dawn Chorus

On Monday 4th May we invite you to be an early bird by joining us on our annual Dawn Chorus Walk. We will be setting out at 4:30am, yes, that’s just before it gets light, to walk the nature trails and listen to the fabulous chorus of the birds as they get going for the day.

We will be out for a couple of hours so you’ll need warm clothes, and perhaps binoculars if you have them, but really it’s all about listening to the birds singing to each other, reminding neighbours of their territories and trying to attract a mate. We’ll return to the visitor centre for a light breakfast.

The Dawn Chorus Walk costs £6. Please book in advance on 01557 815 222 or email helen@creamogalloway.co.uk.
