Why Birds? A free evening talk with Ian Lewis

 

Join us for a relaxed and inspiring evening with Ian Lewis, Dorset’s most well-travelled bird watcher, as he shares the story behind his lifelong passion for birds.

It all began in 1977, when a pair of binoculars and a bird guide sparked a journey that would take Ian all over the world. Along the way, birding has introduced him to incredible places, unforgettable moments, and friendships with people from all walks of life.

 

In this talk, Ian explains Why Birds — and why, out of all the subjects he could have chosen, they continue to inspire curiosity, connection, and wonder.
