- **Event Description**: Illustrated Talk: Bird Migration
by Simon Boyes (Montgomeryshire Birds)

Join us for an illustrated talk exploring the fascinating world of bird migration, presented by Simon Boyes from Montgomeryshire Birds.

Entrance: £3 on the door
Refreshments: Included

Why do birds migrate? Where do they go? What challenges do they face? Are migration patterns changing? What new techniques are helping us to understand migration better? In this evening's talk - the first part of a two-part series of talks on this topic - county bird recorder and MWT Bird Group Chair, Simon Boyes, will try to answer these questions, with illustrations from Montgomeryshire and across the world.  

Simon has lived in Montgomeryshire since 1980, and has been county bird recorder since 2019. For 40 years he led bird-watching tours to all seven continents, and made 30 voyages to Antarctica as ship's ornithologist. He is still an active volunteer with Montgomeryshire Wildlife Trust, and sits on the Council of the Welsh Ornithological Society. 

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!

Please note, this evening's talk will take place at The Hanging Gardens in Llanidloes, rather than the usual venue at Welshpool Methodist Hall.
