SUMMARY:Stanley Swift Project
DESCRIPTION:Our Scottish-born swifts are only with us for three months each year. After a journey of up to 6\,000 mile from equatorial and southern Africa\, they return to their chosen nests in Scotland in early May and head south to Africa again in August. Their nest sites here are at constant danger of being lost so we need to find out where they are to help safeguard them for the future. \nCome and join our volunteers as they carry out surveys of swift nesting sites and flying swifts across Stanley village throughout the month of June. We don’t necessarily plan far in advance as we go out on evenings when the weather is suitable\, usually in the couple of hours before dusk. Contact us at stanleyswiftproject@gmail.com if you’d like to arrange to come out with us one evening and see what is involved.

SUMMARY:Half Day Beaver Safari
DESCRIPTION:This trip visits a wonderful location near Alyth where beavers have built a series of amazing dams and we can easily see how they have changed the surroundings to produce wildlife-rich wetlands. \nWe spend the first half of the evening on a walk to see all these changes in the environment and the second half sitting by the beaver pools\, watching the beavers swimming\, feeding\, grooming and even dam repairing if we are lucky! \nThis is a great trip to learn all about the history of beavers in Scotland\, their life story\, how they re-appeared in Perthshire and why they are so important to the ecology of our rivers and wetlands. We have a 95-100% success rate of seeing the beavers on this trip. \nThis is a great trip for families as everyone can collect their own beaver chips and beaver-chewed sticks! \nOther half day beaver safaris can be arranged on 13th\, 20th and 27th June.
