When It Rains 

What do birds do when it rains   ?       I love the idea that somehow this could be a universal question for our walking groups  ...

​

Rain poses possible dangers to a bird and to us. The biggest one is hypothermia - birds stay warm by trapping tiny pockets of air under their feathers and if those pockets fill with water, that bird is going to get cold very quickly - and this is why down jackets don't work when wet 

​

So, where do birds go in the rain? To shelter, or not.

​

We will talk about it when walking in the rain and observing what the birds do, yet , the important  question is  What do we do when it rains? 

​

Even thought it is raining, we will be going outdoor - how long for and where  it will depend on the intensity of the rain and the span of the rainy weather.

​

With the correct outdoor clothing, waterproof jackets, trousers, good footwear and good plan, we can still stroll for a while before turning back and having an alternative, dry,  programme.

​

As it is raining in the UK quite a bit we have alternative plans in mind and they depend on what walking programme you have committed to do

Broadly speaking, the alternative programmes - workshops - will relate  to the outdoors skills learning.

Martina will be in contact with you about the latest plans and updates on the rainy weather
