Key information
Alex Learmont, Reserves Warden for the Hawk and Owl Trust, will be leading a day learning about the birds of prey at Shapwick Moor.
We will carry out an owl pellet dissection to find out what our resident barn owls have been eating. We will then make and install perches around the reserve for the benefit of kestrels, kingfishers and owls. For enquiries or to book, please email somersetnnrs@naturalengland.org.uk
