THE Ilminster/Chard group is set to welcome Chris Sperring MBE, broadcaster, SWT vicepresident and Hawk and Owl Trust conservation officer to give a presentation entitled Conserving Somerset’s Barn Owls.

In his inimitable and entertaining way, he will bring members up to date on the on-going project to support this nationally important population and its habitat.

He will use photos, video clips – and probably an owl – and will also include information on other British Owls.

The presentation on Friday at 7.30pm in Parish Hall, North Street, Ilminster (TA19 0DG) is suitable for all age groups. Adults £2, non-members £3, no charge for children.

Refreshments available.
