Attenborough workshop

I'm going to be leading an open-air poetry workshop at Attenborough Nature Reserve, just outside Nottingham, this Sunday, February 10th. We'll be trying to translate birdsong into poetry, track down long-distance travellers, turn the tables a little by watching the birdwatchers, and map out our experiences.

It all starts at 9am - we're meeting at the Visitor Centre cafe - and will run until around 2pm. It costs £15 (£12 concessions), and for enquiries and booking, email admin@nottinghamwritersstudio.co.uk or call 0115 959 7947.

You don’t need any previous experience of watching wildlife - just bring warm and waterproof clothing and shoes, pens and paper, bags of energy, and a pair of binoculars if you have them (but I'll have some spares to lend out on the day, so don't worry about that too much).
