    A very interesting and well structured course with an exceptionally good tutor. The weather was rather disappointing but the tutor rearranged the components so that we were outside in the good weather -as were the butterflies .

    An excellent course with a very knowledgeable leader, taking us to many different habitats and allowing us to see numerous birds, plants and other wildlife.

  • Review 686

    I went on this course with a slight interest in slugs and have come out really excited and fired up about them. The tricks about identifying them to species level (do they rock when stroked? Is their slime yellow? Do they move really fast?) were invaluable, and the introduction to…

We were especially pleased that this course included limestone quarries since we came on this course with a former limestone quarry in Lincolnshire in mind.

    This was an excellent course. Penny, who filled in at short notice, was perfect as a leader. Her knowledge of limestone species is excellent.
