About the event
Birds have uniquely adapted skeletons with lightweight, often hollow, bones that enable flight. Their skulls, meanwhile, help facilitate feeding and senses such as smell.
This is the topic of March's Bird Group Talk by Ric Morris, aka the @Skull_Bloke. A bones enthusiast since his teens, Ric has delivered bone ID workshops for local groups and organisations such as The Mammal Society and his talk will be informative and fascinating.
Everyone is welcome, and the entrance fee of £3 includes the talk (free for under 18s), light refreshments, and the opportunity to chat with like-minded folk and the speakers themselves. We usually have a raffle, so please bring a prize if you are able to (£1 per ticket). We look forward to seeing you there!
