SUMMARY:Minibus Outing to Knepp
DESCRIPTION:I’m pleased to announce the next minibus outing\, where we will be visiting the Knepp rewilding estate\, near Horsham on Wednesday 20th May. \nThe main target bird is obviously the White Stork\, which should be on nests and bill clapping at the time of our visit. However\, we should also find plenty of summer migrant species and with luck may also find Turtle Doves. \nDetails \nWe will depart by minibus from the front of Shoreham Station at 8AM. The station is close to the number 2 and 700 bus routes. Our driver will be SDOS member Ian Gifford. \nWe will spend the morning at the reserve and aim to arrive back in Shoreham around 1 – 1.30PM. \nThe cost for the minibus will be £10\, to be paid in advance by bank transfer. \nWhat to expect \nThis will be a half day outing. There are flat\, wide marked routes around the site\, but the ground can be uneven and muddy in parts\, dependent on weather conditions. There is an option to climb up steps to view the landscape from tree platforms\, but this is optional. Grazing cattle and pigs are likely to be encountered. \nRefreshments are available near the car park\, or you may bring your own refreshments. There is a picnic area near the car park. Toilet facilities are available at the cafe area. \n\n\nHow to Apply \nIf you want to apply\, please email me personally at chair@sdos.org by no later than Thursday 30th April. There will be a random selection of participants if the trip is oversubscribed\, and you will hear one way or the other. Payment details will be sent to successful applicants in due course. \nWe hope that there will be a high level of interest in this outing. Given the reserve’s proximity\, some members might prefer meeting us there. Please let us know if you are intending to do this.
