SUMMARY:Bat & Moth Evening at Baydons Meadow
DESCRIPTION:Join our annual quest for bats and moths in and around Baydons Meadow! \nMeet by the interpretation board and log seat near the cycle path and blue footbridge over the Avon. \nPaul Darby\, who used to work for the Wiltshire Wildlife Trust\, will chat about the bats and lend out several bat detectors for the evening so that we can listen out for the clicks from their calls as we look up for them flitting through the trees just after dusk. \nMichael Sammes\, amateur-lepidopterist of our group\, will talk about and show us any moths that visit the moth-trap and white sheet that he will put out there. He also hopes to have run his moth-trap on the previous evening in his garden nearby and so to reveal some moths that he has identified and temporarily captured which can then be released. \nBoth Paul and Michael are inquisitive and knowledgeable on all things in nature\, so it should prove an interesting evening. \nPlease see Baydons Meadow Wildlife Group website https://baydonsmeadow.org.uk/ for information about our volunteer group\, our management of the meadow and how you can get involved. \n\nFree entry\nDirections to find Baydons Meadow can be found here.

SUMMARY:Bristol Avon Rivers Trust - Yellow Fish
DESCRIPTION:Only rain down the drain! \nDid you know that surface road drains lead directly into your local watercourse? This means that anything other than rain poured down the drain\, such as litter\, car oils\, detergents\, weed killers or wastewater can harm river health and its wildlife! \nBristol Avon River Trust (BART) are running an exciting Yellow Fish Campaign in the local area to help raise awareness of the impacts of human activity on water quality in the Bristol Avon. We are hosting a series of Yellowfish events with the local community\, which involves putting up posters to spread the message and painting yellow fish next to surface drains to remind the public that what enters the drain\, flows directly into the nearby river or stream. \nVolunteers will use stencils and chalk-based yellow spray paint to mark a yellow fish shape (a great family friendly activity!) \nBristol Avon Rivers Trust: is a charity which delivers education\, land and river management advice and practical river restoration work throughout the Bristol Avon catchment. BART is working in partnership with Wessex Water through the Community Connectors project (https://www.wessexwater.co.uk/visit-and-learn/community-connectors). Together\, we aim to re-connect the community with our river and to benefit local people and wildlife. \nSign up via our Eventbrite page: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/yellow-fish-event-tickets-647968520287

SUMMARY:Tiny Forest Carbon Measuring
DESCRIPTION:Tiny forest carbon measuring week (17-25 September 2022)\nOn Saturday 17th September 2022\, we’re asking for volunteers to take park in Earthwatch Europe’s Tiny Forest carbon week by measuring and recording all silver numbered tagged trees at Monkton Park’s Tiny Forest. \nWhy take part?\nCarbon Week has benefits both for you\, and for science! \nBy taking part in citizen science\, you become a vital part of our environmental research. We use science to better understand the environmental challenges we face\, and to find solutions to these issues. In particular\, the data you provide will allow us to calculate the carbon stored at your Tiny Forest so we can understand changes over time and location. \nThe health and wellbeing benefits of spending time in nature are well-documented. Taking part in a Tiny Forest citizen science survey is a great opportunity to spend some mindful time outside in your local area. It’s also a brilliant way to connect with your community and spend time with family and friends in the fresh air and green space. \nFor more information\, please visit: https://tinyforest.earthwatch.org.uk/carbon-week-2022
