Event Details

Come on a Green Lancaster ECOWild fieldtrip in collaboration with ‘The Bay: A Blueprint for Recovery’ for a day of natural history, bird watching and rock pooling.

We will explore marine conservation issues related to Morecambe Bay and the history of the area. Find out more about ‘The Bay: A Blueprint for Recovery’.

In the morning we will be doing coastal bird watching and a recreational disturbance walk. We will be walking around Heysham head whilst we look out for birds and discuss the effects of recreational disturbance on them. Following lunch there will be a Marine Survey of the intertidal zone. There will be a creative element to the day where students will be asked to create an output such as an Instagram or Facebook reel to share their discoveries.
