Watch Meeting Sunday 18th September

 HELLO WILDLIFE WATCH MEMBERS

Welcome to the first in our Autumn programme of wildlife events!
We begin with a visit to the very popular Louth canal, a beautiful part of the town which many of you will already be familiar with. But our journey along the banks this time will be anything but familiar! We intend to explore the entire Solar System as we go, discovering each of the planets in turn and uncovering amazing facts about them. Starting from the Navigation Warehouse we will encounter Mars, Jupiter, Neptune and more, finding out water and wildlife related facts about them and comparing their weather to that of our own planet. But don't worry, unlike Voyager 2 which has now travelled out far beyond the Solar System, we intend to return to Earth in good time for some Earthly nature related activities on the boards of the navigation warehouse! Phew! Our next meeting is: ‘Weather, Water and Wildlife.' Date: Sunday 18th September Time: 2pm Place: Louth Navigation Canal Please bring suitable clothing with strong footwear and be prepared to spend time outdoors. Access to toilets and seating is available. This is a free event suitable for accompanied youngsters aged from 4 to 14. Please book in advance by email to keithjpalmer@mail.com so we have a good indication of how many are going to attend.

AGM and Talk Friday 30th September 2022

We've not met indoors for a long time time but this autumn we are resuming our regular talks through the winter, as before at the Methodist Church, Nichol Hill, Louth LN11 9NQ starting at 7:30pm.

For our first meeting of the season we are very pleased to welcome back Stu West, who will give a talk about 'Rewilding' along with an update about our local otter population.

Before Stu's talk we will be holding our long delayed Annual General Meeting. There won't be very much to report as we haven't done much through the pandemic, so this will be a brief affair, but we do have to re-elect our committee and would be delighted to hear from anybody who would like to join the committee. We can always do with more help, ideas and inspiration. If you think you might like to take a more active part in running the Louth Area Branch of the Lincolnshire Wildlife Trust please don't be shy.
