The song of the curlew is one of the iconic harbingers of spring, but the numbers of breeding curlews in UK have halved over the last 25 years. There is real concern that, if no action is taken, curlews will disappear within a few years, and curlew song will be lost from the valley forever.
Come along to Keswick Museum to learn about why this decline has been so rapid, and the steps taken by the Curlew Recovery Project to protect these wonderful animals.
Wednesday 11th March
1pm in the museum's Crosthwaite Room
