Wild Watch Training: The Beacon Centre

Living Levels

Living Levels are partnering with SEWBReC to deliver species identification and recording training, suitable for beginners!

The Beacon Centre

This workshop will explore a variety of birds, mammals, amphibians and plants found on the Gwent Levels, and it will give you the skills to identify and record them for yourself! This is a free event to encourage people to go out and record species across the Gwent Levels. Species recordings are an invaluable way to understand the effects of the climate crisis, as well as inform us of species numbers across the Gwent Levels. Such data can be used to better inform management decisions and policies that affect your local area. This will be a day long workshop delivered by SEWBReC (South East Wales Biodiversity Records Centre) in partnership with Living Levels. It is suitable for beginners – no prior experience required! The day will include: - An introduction to recording species, - An introduction to the identification of 12 key species, highlighting diagnostic tips for identification as well as confusion species, - A short walk in the local area to practice identification.

Please note lunch will not be provided on the day, so please bring a pack lunch with you. We will, however, supply tea, coffee, and biscuits to be enjoyed throughout the day 😊Please note we are holding three identical training days at three locations across the Gwent Levels. Please do not book onto all three events. Please only book onto one of the events at the location that best suits you: Newport Wetlands, Magor Marsh or Beacon Centre Community Centre.
