Guided Dawn Chorus
River Dee Car Park
Old Line Road
Ballater
AB355RQ
Part of the Deeside Nature Festival 2025.
Soak in the delights of the dawn chorus around the River Dee in Ballater with Dan and Rachael from Wild Discovery. Over the course of the morning we will listen for as many species as possible getting to know the commoner species and understanding a little more about how to identify different bird calls and songs. We will be able to hear and discuss the differences between birds that sing in woodlands and those in more open habitats and with luck our encounters could include Tree Pipit, Redstart, Sedge Warbler, Common Sandpiper and Dipper. Profits from this event will be donated to a relevant conservation charity.
This event will be followed by the ‘Magic Moths of Deeside’ at Ballater Green.
We will make an early start to coincide with the higher levels of bird activity in the morning and especially around signing and vocalisations. It will be a very relaxed pace which will allow us to absorb the sights and sounds of the wildlife in this fascinating area of river and mixed woodland. No dogs allowed.
