Round Shaw Downs

For our third group visit to local nature reserve Roundshaw Downs, we follow how the changing seasons and long hot summer are affecting the environment and wildlife in our midst.This is your chance to catch-up with Inside Croydon's unique year-long urban nature project. After previous walks that focused on the birds and the trees of the area around the nature reserve, this time we'll be out in the early evening to check on the plant and insect life - particularly searching for rare small blue butterflies.Because of covid, numbers are limited. Paying subscribers to Inside Croydon will get priority places.<a href="https://www.patreon.com/insidecroydon?fan_landing=true" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">To sign up as an iC patron, for less than a fiver per month, click here.</a>This time, we'll be meeting on a midweek evening, meeting at a designated point (which will be notified to you by mail from EventBrite in the week beforehand) at 6.30pm for a gentle stroll that should take us through to dusk.Bring your binoculars or cameras. And a water bottle and maybe a snack to eat along the wayThis is going to be a covid cautious event: Only those who have been fully vaccinated and boostered will be welcome to join us, and we also insist that you should have had a covid-negative lateral flow test in the 24 hours before the walk. Being in the great outdoors and with some sensible social distancing, we hope to mitigate the risks of staging some kind of super spreader event.And all the usual pieces of advice about wearing appropriate clothing and footwear for a rough old ramble also apply.Our last walk raised £50 for the Sutton Nature Conservation Volunteers. If you are able to make a donation (we suggest two or three pounds), Inside Croydon will match the amount raised, with all money going to Sutton Nature Conservation Volunteers, who do so much of the work on the habitat around Roundshaw and other reserves, it would be very welcome.
