See event details

A event on Saturday 30th September. The event starts at 08:00.


8-9:30am. Nature walk with wild life expert Ed Drewitt. Reserve a spot FREE here: https://shorturl.at/jU458

Nature walk with wild life expert Ed Drewitt who will be leading this autumn morning walk – he has been showing people wildlife in Bristol for the past 20+ years and is a familiar friend to Hotwells and waterside. On this walk we will be listening for early autumn birdsong, looking for flowers and ferns growing out of Hotwell’s special sandstone walls, admiring trees and looking out for any watery wildlife on the harbour.

This walk conicides with #EuroBioBlitz2023, so this is also an opportunity to contribute by recording wildlife on our doorsteps from 29 & 30 September on iNaturalist. Researchers, school groups, citizens and wildlife enthusiasts across the continent will be taking part in this race against the clock to put nature on the map, submitting photos and observations of wildlife in their neighborhoods through the free, easy to use iNaturalist mobile phone app. By observing local nature, everyone can support vital conservation research whilst connecting with nature and enjoying the outdoors.

Simply download the iNaturalist app, take a photograph of wildlife in your local area – whether that’s a tree, plant or insect or animal – and upload. You don’t even have to know anything about the species you are observing. Teams of experts will be reviewing and updating the information that’s submitted, so you can log back in later and learn more about what you’ve spotted.

Meeting point at the side entrance of the Church on Clifton Vale.

Reserve your place for free on online as places are limited (on eventbrite, link at the top of this page). Pay what you can on the day at the end of the walk what it’s worth to you (cash or card).

This event is sponsored by Home-School Tutoring Gloucestershire.
