Exeter City Council Media Release 30 April 2008
Early risers who also enjoy the countryside are being challenged to recognise the wild bird song they hear in the early mornings.
People who want to tell the notes of a robin from the song of a blackbird are invited to join a free guided walk with the Countryside Rangers at Mincinglake Valley Park on Sunday (4 May).
The walk, which takes place on International Dawn Chorus Day, will provide a great opportunity to explore Mincinglake with a bird expert, and look at other springtime wildlife in the meadows and woodland.
By the end of the walk, those with a keen ear should be confident in recognising at least five different native bird songs.
Walkers should bring binoculars if they have them to see the birds up close. Participants should meet at Mincinglake Valley Park Car Park, off Stoke Hill, near Sylvania Community Hut, at 7am.
