| | | West Dorset walk 23rd July Would anyone be interested in coming down to the depths of Dorset in July?
Mainly to see flowers and insects but plenty of birds around too.
I have set the date as Saturday 23rd, as Tiggrx may be coming as our ID expert and it is easier for him to travel on a Saturday.
The walk will include Eggardon Hill (chalk upland), Kingcombe Meadows (ancient pasture land, run by the Dorset Wildlife Trust as a working farm), and Powerstock Common (woodland, grassy banks and ponds).
There are facilities at Kingcombe Meadows.
Some form of tick protection is a must for the Powerstock and Kingcombe reserves. |

I can't 100% commit at present, but very likely. |

| | | Re: West Dorset walk 23rd July Guess where I'm based!? - A small market town in West Dorset with a name beginning with 'B' and ending in 't'.
I'm not especially into flowers though - More into rocks, birds, insects, and pond life.
^ Me on Exmoor's Valley Of The Rocks last week.

| | | Re: West Dorset walk 23rd July Hi Jennie,
This sounds lovely.
Hopefully myself & Adam can make it.
If we can, it'll be my last for for a while as my babysitter will be on crutches for the next 6 weeks after that weekend.
Fingers crossed & I've put it in my diary.

| | | Re: West Dorset walk 23rd July Gosh, Dorset seems to be a very popular place!
I look forward to meeting you Cordaline and Adam, also possibly Burko and Red Robin. The start time will be 10am at Eggardon Hill, the precise location I shall post nearer the time. There is limited parking available, so it will depend on how many vehicles are coming. |  | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
