Welcome to the website of Risborough Countryside Group. We meet once a month on the first Tuesday of the month at 8pm, excluding January and summertime, in Princes Risborough Community Centre, Carrington Room. Click on the "What's On" tab for the full events programme.
We often have a Friday morning walk, a week or two after the monthly meetings. These walks take us to local woodlands and nature reserves, where we amble at a leisurely pace through the countryside, stopping frequently to listen to birds, look at plants and fungi, and to identify species that we see on our journey.
The evening meetings involve a slideshow, looking at images of wildlife, plants and landscapes that people have seen on their holidays, or with talks from local representatives from the RSPB or other wildlife groups. The slide show is followed by tea, coffee, and a raffle.
Here's a photo of the group on a recent spring walk of College Lake Nature Reserve, near Tring.
