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:WizzyWARP24 - Birdsong and More
DESCRIPTION:This event by West Stormont Woodland Group is being arranged with Vision PK to bring a small group of visually-impaired people to Taymount Wood for an enjoyable few hours in nature. \nWSWG has secured funding for this event from the PKC Green Living Fund which will enable us to provide transport on the day. There will be shelter and seating in the WSWG gazebos where we will offer our visitors a woodland picnic and some engaging conversation and activities around nature\, wellbeing\, woodland history and simple information and actions we can all use to live greener lives. With one-to-one support from volunteers on the day\, we will take a walk together up the woodland track to experience as much as we can of the birdsong and other woodland sounds\, smells\, textures and more. \nAs a closed event\, we unfortunately can’t take bookings for this specific event. However\, we would love to run similar events in the future – so please do contact us if you would like to be part of these: contact@weststormontwoodlandgroup.scot \n

SUMMARY:Art of Walking
DESCRIPTION:The Kinross-shire Climate Café will meet before our summer break on 14th June in the centre of Milnathort and walk together to Tillywhally Community Woodland. The walk will be an experience of our fragmented and volatile nature in the modern world. The woodland provides a very small wildlife habitat in a sea of agricultural land scarred by the road’s network. Nevertheless it is a place where woodland birds raise their chicks\, pipistrelle bats hunt for moths and lonely hares and deer seek refuge at night. \nWe will enjoy a mindfulness walk\, observing nature and looking for signs of its adaptation to climate change and habitat loss. \nAfter the walk we will return to Milnathort Town Hall to enjoy refreshments and share home-made food to nourish and connect with each other. \nThis will be followed by a screening “Of Walking On Thin Ice” organised by Milnathort Filmhouse Community Cinema. It is a film made by Benjamin Wigley\, following the 500-mile journey (Camino to COP26) made on foot by hundreds of climate activists from Bristol and London to Glasgow for the COP26 Climate Conference in November 2021. “Of Walking On Thin Ice” is a beautiful film which captures the spirit of hope in action\, embodied by the Camino\, and the community of care and connection that was formed on this journey. The film shows us not only how we can advocate and influence\, but also BE the change that we want for our world. \nThat special “pilgrimage” took place a few years back. Reliving it will bring an opportunity to reflect on what has changed since then. The film will be followed by a discussion on benefits of walking\, our links with nature and how we could preserve this for the future. It will also be a positive start to our Scottish summer to discover the benefits of gentle exercise. \nEvent price: £10/£5 (the reduction if you contribute sandwiches\, scones or a cake to share).
