A SERIES of walks led by the RSPB are being held aimed at revealing the moorland wildlife at the United Utilities Bowland Estate.
The walks, which are led by Jude Lane from the bird charity, are taking place over the next four months.
The next guided walk will be held on May 5, and will be followed by walks on May 16, June 7 and 27 and July 4.
The United Utilities Bowland Estate used to be England’s stronghold for hen harriers but the birds are now so rare they have not bred there for the past two seasons.
All of the walks are five miles long and begin at 9.30am.
Tickets cost £5 and need to be booked in advance by contacting Fariha Quraishi on 01524 581001 or at fariha.quraishi@rspb.org.uk.
All money raised will be put directly back into the conservation of hen harriers in Northern England.
