As dusk draws in we shall hunt out the unnatural sounds of the nightjar and the elusive green light of glow worms (not a worm at all but a beetle).

Our annual hunt for nightjars and glow worms is preceded this year at the Cottage Inn, Upper Bucklebury, which is less than a mile from the starting point. You can have a meal there, or you may like to just come for a drink. I’m suggesting 7.45 for meeting at the pub and then as dusk draws at 9.45 we take our cars to the parking area just off the main road between the pub and Chapel Row. You may wish to take a torch for when it truly gets dark.

Full details are given on Thames Valley IVC's Meetup website: https://www.meetup.com/thames-valley-ivc/events/308536835.

If you are on Meetup then book there please.  Otherwise email the organiser Ralph (ralph.phillips6821@gmail.com) by 6:00 pm on the night to let him know you would like to come.
