01/02/2023 at Usk Valley

CALLING ALL BIRDERS - an important meeting is planned for Friday 8th March 7 - 8.30pm at Henderson Hall, Talybont-on-Usk. Now that the Welsh Government as landowner have declared their intentions, the launch of a volunteer group 'Usk Valley Ospreys' will take place then. It is being formed to support and monitor the breeding pair, which if there is sufficient support will hopefully develop into an Osprey Tourism venture. Please come to the meeting (free tickets bookable through Eventbrite) and show your support. Thank you.
