SUMMARY:Larry Griffin Goose Talk at the Riverside Tap
DESCRIPTION:An event for adults at The Riverside Tap. \n\n\n\nJoin Larry as he discusses the connections between different sites celebrating the geese\, such as Lindisfarne and D&G\, which are celebrated as both host our internationally important barnacle geese and pink-footed geese. Both sites also cater for brent geese from different parts of the Arctic through their provision of safe\, high-quality\, undisturbed foraging and roosting habitats. \n\n\n\nAll three species have similar coastal habitat needs for saltmarsh and wet pastures. These migratory goose needs can be contrasted with the year-round needs of our own resident greylag geese\, which are often overlooked\, misunderstood\, and unappreciated by comparison. Yet\, they are a rich source of intrigue once we start to shine a light on their yearly exploits and struggles for survival… \n\n\n\n\n\n\nBOOK HERE

SUMMARY:Nature Crafts with The Unexpected Garden
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Unexpected Garden in Stranraer\, where we will start off with a wee walk to collect natural materials for an afternoon of arts and crafts. We’ll be talking about some of the winter birds we’re so lucky to see at our shorefront garden and learning about the migration routes that are right above our heads. Bring binoculars if you have some\, but just bringing yourself is more than enough. As we are outdoors\, remember to bring a waterproof jacket and wellies if you prefer. We’ll have some tea\, coffee\, and hot chocolate to keep us toasty.

SUMMARY:Larry Griffin Goose Talk
DESCRIPTION:A kid-friendly event exploring connections between different sites celebrating the geese\, such as Lindisfarne and D&G\, which are celebrated as both host our internationally important barnacle goose and pink-footed goose. Both sites also cater for brent geese from different parts of the Arctic through their provision of safe\, high-quality\, undisturbed foraging and roosting habitats. \n\n\n\nAll three species have similar coastal habitat needs for saltmarsh and wet pastures. These migratory goose needs can be contrasted with the year-round needs of our own resident greylag geese\, which are often overlooked\, misunderstood\, and unappreciated by comparison. Yet\, they are a rich source of intrigue once we start to shine a light on their yearly exploits and struggles for survival…

SUMMARY:Film Screening: Baraka with an Introduction & Short Film by the GSA Biosphere 
DESCRIPTION:Heart of the Biosphere: A Year in the Life of Merric-Kells and Silver FloweFilmed over twelve months among some of Southwest Scotland’s most dramatic mountain and wetland landscapes. This cinematic short invites its audience to experience wildlife\, habitats\, and a sense of place. Journey through four seasons to discover why the UNESCO Biosphere’s remote core area is so important for conservation and sustainable land use and how forging connections between people and nature creates a better future for all.   \n\n\n\nBaraka is a documentary like no other.  It was shot in 24 countries and features incredible images of the world in all its variety\, a cinematic spectacle with an incredible soundtrack – not to be missed \n\n\n\nRoger Ebert included the film in his “Great Movies” list\, writing: ‘If man sends another Voyager to the distant stars and it can carry only one film on board\, that film might be “Baraka.” It uses no language\, so needs no translation. It speaks in magnificent images\, natural sounds\, and music both composed and discovered. It regards our planet and the life upon it. It stands outside of historical time. To another race\, it would communicate: This is what you would see if you came here.’ \n\n\n\n\n\nBOOK TICKETS HERE
