Please note the diversification of events listed, to cater for various degrees of knowledge and likely numbers.
'Surveys' are, as usual, primarily scientific recording, where numbers may have to be limited because of difficulties with site access or sensitive sites.
'Walks' will also involve scientific recording but will cater for larger, more diverse audiences, and involve more social outreach.
Site details are not published on this website to avoid overcrowding at sensitive sites with limited access. Anyone interested in going on a survey, please contact the Secretary who will confirm your place and send full directions.
Non-members are welcome but should contact the Secretary beforehand (julia.huggins [at] btinternet.com)* for all events other than the public event at the Harcourt Arboretum. Supporters of the Woodcote Commoners should contact the group organiser in this organisation, who will liaise with the FSO.
[*Use standard email @; the format used above prevents automatic scamming from this website.]
In the event of bad weather, contact the Secretary (07879 066876) or CJH for 22 or 25 Oct. (01865 761110).
