Evenings are crisp and if you are wondering what to do with some of your winter evenings then a night time Owl Prowl at Arnos Vale Cemetery is just what is needed. Picture the scene: A winter's brisk evening, fresh and perky, walking around the beautiful, serene 45 acre site, the scent of vanilla in the air from the Heliotrope flowers, western red cedars smelling of pineapple and your breath freezing in the air in the cold November air. Ian McGuire, from Wild Owl Educational Services, the owl conservationalist and photographer, will guide you around the site. Ian McGuire says "I will be giving an illustrated educational talk about all the British owls as we walk around the cemetery so visitors can understand the different species and conditions they face in their fight to survive". Arnos Vale Trustee Mary Wood, who is also an ecologist with Avon Wildlife Trust, said: "Wildlife conservation is a high priority as we restroe Arnos Vale. The Owl Prowl gives people a chance to find out more about one of the most magnificent animals living in and around the cemetery".Last autumn this Owl Prowl was highly successful and sold out in a matter of days. The Owl Prowl discovered the presence of a pair of tawny owls here at Arnos Vale. Many people had previously reported hearing the nocturnal birds but this was the first confirmation of an active pair hunting on site. Since this time Arnos Vale has installed two owl boxes in the hope that the pair would breed and continue to thrive - why not come back and see the progress made? Suitable for the whole family to enjoy! Children are more than welcome! This tour will last approximately 60-90 minutes and Wellington boots and very warm clothing will definitely be in order. Sadly no dogs are allowed on the Owl Prowl. For more information on how to visit safely please click here. HOW TO BOOK
