BRANCHES - Mid Devon

Mid Devon

The Mid Devon Group aims to cover an area of Devon that stretches from the Cornwall border across central Devon.  The aim is to hold field and occasional indoor meetings at different locations so that the needs of as many members as possible are met. The Branch is organised by a Committee elected by Branch members at its AGM.

An annual programme of events is published on the Branch page of the Devon Birds website.

Each walk has a designated leader who has knowledge of the area and the birds to be seen in the various habitats.  These trips are suitable for prospective members as well as the more experienced.  We aim to make new members and beginners welcome and help each other identify calls and sightings and share useful information. All attending should be suitably dressed for the weather conditions and be reasonably fit as the terrain can vary.  Check the programme to see if pack lunch is required.  Members from other branches of Devon Birds are most welcome to join us.

We also encourage members to participate in surveys and other studies from time to time and details will be made available as appropriate.
