Full description: 

It's spring, it's summer time and it's the start of the RSPB Early Bird Challenge. You can find more info about the challenge here: https://www.rspb.org.uk/helping-nature/what-you-can-do/early-bird-challenge Regardless of whether you are participating in the challenge or not, please join us for a short morning walk before work! Going outside in the morning will definitely make you feel better for the rest of the day. The route will be a short loop through Graves park, with an optional coffee stop at the Chantrey Press at the end. And hopefully we'll hear some birdsong, too!

Public transport or car sharing options: 

Lots of buses from the city centre to the starting point, including the 24 to Lowedges which arrives around 07:58. There is a parking lot opposite the bus stop, next to Woodseats Medical Centre, as well as on-street parking in side roads.
