SUMMARY:Breakfast with Red Squirrels
DESCRIPTION:Immerse yourself in the arboreal life of the Red Squirrel\, in the mossy woodlands of RSPB Haweswater in the eastern Lake District National Park. Based from Wild Intrigue’s comfortable Woodland Wildlife Hide in beautiful Naddle Forest\, you will spend a morning watching the antics of Red Squirrels whilst enjoying a locally sourced\, cold breakfast board. \n\n\n\nWith intimate views from the hide\, and the shared expertise of a Wild Intrigue guide\, you will discover the fascinating ecology of the Red Squirrel and its woodland home along with an array of birdlife. \n\n\n\nScampering Red Squirrels in treetops were once a common sight throughout the whole of the UK\, with historic population estimated at 3.5 million individuals. Now\, due to the pressures of reduced food\, habitat availability and disease\, largely brought by the introduction of the North American Grey Squirrels\, the UK Red Squirrel population has dramatically declined to 120\,000 individuals\, with only around 15\,000 Reds remaining in England. \n\n\n\nBut there is hope! Scotland and Northern England remain strongholds for Red Squirrels\, with teams of dedicated conservationists working together to protect the scamping of Reds in our treetops for future generations to enjoy. \n\n\n\nThe work undertaken at RSPB Haweswater makes an outstanding contribution to Red Squirrel conservation in in the Lake District National Park. By protecting Naddle Forest\, a semi-ancient Atlantic oak woodland\, Reds have abundant foraging and nesting opportunities\, and by planting tens of thousands of fruit and nut bearing trees over the years\, this vital habitat will be expanded and protected to ensure the future survival of Reds Squirrels at Haweswater. \n\n\n\nWe are proud to host this experience at RSPB Haweswater. For every Breakfast with Red Squirrels ticket sold\, you will be helping to support the conservation of Red Squirrels at this beautiful reserve.

SUMMARY:Wetland Bird Survey - Breeding Birds Training Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Over the next year the Wild Ouseburn project will be developing a series of surveys across the project area. The surveys will follow seasonal changes of species and follow existing methodologies. The results gathered will help build a better picture of the wildlife in the area\, enabling us to better conserve and enhance habitats and species\, boosting the vibrant biodiversity of Wild Ouseburn! \n\n\n\nThe Wetlands Bird Survey has been underway for three weeks now\, with the Spring breeding season now upon us it’s time to record some extra data. This training workshop will be a top-up session for existing surveyors\, to identify the signs of breeding behaviour\, and how to record broods of young birds.  \n\n\n\n\n\nMeet outside the Cycle Hub for 10am\, new survey sheets will be provided. \n\n\n\n\n\nIf you would like to start getting involved in wildlife surveying through Wild Ouseburn\, or are intrigued and would like to simply find out more you can get in touch with us here. \n\n\n\nPlease note that you do not need to have prior knowledge of birds to take part in these surveys. \n\n\n\nCan’t make the workshop dates? Don’t worry\, drop us an email and we can arrange another time!

SUMMARY:Wild Ouseburn Bird Count - Training Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us to help survey the birds of Wild Ouseburn with the Merlin Bird ID App!\n\n\n\nThe Wild Ouseburn project aims to survey as much of the wildlife in the area as possible\, documenting wildlife records that can help conserve and restore the species in the valley\, by informing future management and identifying opportunities for rewilding. \n\n\n\nBy surveying the birds with set methods we can compare records year after year\, creating robust data to monitor the Lower Ouseburn Valley’s birds into the future. \n\n\n\nThe Wild Ouseburn Bird Count will use a survey technique called ‘Point Counts’\, a pre-defined spot where you record the birds over 10 minutes. For this survey we’ll be using the Merlin Bird ID App\, which can recognise and identify the birds you hear! \n\n\n\nThis training workshop will cover all the survey techniques for the Wild Ouseburn Bird Count\, including setting up the Merlin Bird ID App. \n\n\n\nNo prior experience needed\, just a phone capable of downloading the Merlin Bird ID App (we’re currently looking at the possibility of having some tablets for survey use). \n\n\n\nNo booking required\, just meet at Ouseburn Farm for 10am.

SUMMARY:Sunset Parakeet Watch
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an informal evening to watch the Ring-Necked Parakeets (Psittacula krameria) heading to roost over Ballast Hills!\n\n\n\nA species native to South Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa\, the origins of Ring-Necked Parakeets in the UK is one of rumour and myth\, some say Jimi Hendrix released them in London in the 60s\, others that they escaped from the set of The Africa Queen 1951! \n\n\n\nRinged-Necked Parakeets have now colonised many parts of Europe\, and the UK (particularly in London). In Newcastle we have a small\, but growing population\, of about 300 birds\, in the winter months they roost communally. You can find out more about them in Phil’s blog. \n\n\n\nBallast Hills is a perfect place to spot these noisy parrots heading to their winter roost in Walker Park. Join us to record them in the Wild Ouseburn\, bring a chair if you have one\, or a blanket to sit on the grass\, and we’ll bring the binoculars! \n\nNo need to book\, just meet at Ballast Hills for 530pm.  \n\n(What3Words: ///door.alive.lion)

SUMMARY:Nest Box Record Scheme Training Workshop
DESCRIPTION:As part of the Wild Ouseburn project\, a Nest Box Scheme has been setup across the area\, with 16 bird boxes installed to date!  \n\n\n\nThese Bird Boxes provide nesting habitat for a range of hole nesting species from Blue Tits and Great Tits\, to House Sparrows and Starlings. Nesting habitat for hole nesting species are significantly reduced in urban areas as trees are often not mature\, and many holes in our buildings are required\, preventing birds nesting opportunity. \n\n\n\nWe need your help to monitor the boxes! \n\n\n\nThe new boxes will provide a vital nest site for many species\, but we need to monitor and record their success (or failures). To do this we have established a Nest Box Recording project as part of the British Trust for Ornithology’s (BTO) Nest Record Scheme. \n\n\n\nBy following the progress of individual boxes (and nests)\, we can collect vital data on the breeding success of the birds in the Lower Ouseburn Valley\, helping inform future management and rewilding\, our findings will also feed into the BTO’s national data. \n\n\n\nThis training session will focus on developing the skills required for completing the Nest Record Scheme survey using an endoscope camera (in small groups)\, which will take place during the Spring. No prior experience is needed\, all equipment will be provided. \n\n\n\nNo booking required just meet at the Cumberland Arms for 2:30pm.

SUMMARY:Quayside Wildlife Safari
DESCRIPTION:Amongst the spectacular architecture of Newcastle\, incredible wildness can be found in our everyday explorations of the city. \n\n\n\nBetween Newcastle and Gateshead runs the tidal vein of the River Tyne. With its comings and goings between sea and land\, the scenery of the urban Quayside is ever-changing\, and so too is the wildlife which lives within and alongside it. \n\n\n\nOur Quayside is renowned as being home to the world’s most inland breeding colony of Black-legged Kittiwakes\, but also an incredible array of other\, perhaps surprising\, species. From familiar curb-side Feral Pigeons\, to awe-inspiring Peregrine Falcons\, which sit atop bridges\, viewing the city like magnificent gargoyles.  \n\n\n\nThe River Tyne was once a heavily polluted\, industrial river\, but now you can see Otters and Grey Seals feeding in the river\, Kittiwakes breeding on the stunning architecture and iconic Tyne Bridge\, Shelduck\, Teal\, and Redshank foraging amongst Dunston Staiths and a whole host of other species. \n\n\n\nJoin a Wild Intrigue guide for a journey along the Newcastle-Gateshead Quayside\, to discover the wildlife that calls this city home. You’ll discover the history of the River Tyne\, and how its industrial past has shaped the wildlife that can now be found in the heart of this urban landscape. \n\n\n\nThis walking tour will be approximately 5 miles long\, following footpaths along the River Tyne. We’ll stop for lunch along the banks of the river to enjoy a delicious packed lunch from local social enterprise\, Big River Bakery.

SUMMARY:OUSEBURN DARK SKIES | Why Dark Skies Matter: Talk & Stargazing with Duncan Wise
DESCRIPTION:An evening exploring our place in the universe\n\n\n\nWe are thrilled to welcome wonderful Duncan Wise from Northumberland National Park\, for our final Ouseburn Wild Talk of the season. \n\n\n\nDuncan was instrumental in securing International Dark Park status for Northumberland National Park in 2013\, and has continued to be a passionate advocate of its continued protection and exploration. This winter was the 10th Anniversary of the Northumberland International Dark Sky Park\, and we are delighted to celebrate this by welcoming Duncan to Ouseburn to share the magnificence of the universe with us. \n\n\n\nIn his fascinating talk\, Duncan will share his expert tips into how – even in the city – we can better conserve our dark skies for wildlife\, and our own health and wellbeing. We will also delve into the various ways to enjoy stargazing; from specialist apps to discovering some of the best locations to become immersed in the star-dusted night-sky. \n\n\n\nWeather permitting\, Duncan will also host a guided stargazing session in the Ouseburn Woods under the bridges\, with the use of Northumberland National Park’s telescopes. Fingers crossed for clear skies…. \n\n\n\nIf you are unable to attend the stargazing session\, you are very welcome to just come along to the talk.  \n\n\n\nThis event will also welcome in the launch of Ouseburn Dark Skies\, a long weekend celebrating our nocturnal wildlife and exploring ways to protect our dark skies for wildlife and people. Ouseburn Dark Skies is part of the Wild Ouseburn project. \n\n\n\nHosted in the beautiful Ouseburn Farm meeting room on Thursday 21st March 2024. Please aim to arrive for a 6pm start. \n\n\n\nWith thanks to the support of Malings Community Fund and Northumberland National Park in Ouseburn Dark Skies.

SUMMARY:Noctalgia: Dark Skies Matter | Ouseburn exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Casting light on nocturnal wildlife\n\n\n\nWe are delighted to welcome the enchantment of the Northumberland International Dark Sky Park to Ouseburn\, with the spectacular exhibition\, Noctalgia: Dark Skies Matter\, created by Ouseburn-based artist Bethan Maddocks. \n\n\n\nThis beautiful series of sculptures play with light and cast mesmerising shadows around the exhibition space of the BottleWorks gallery space in Ouseburn. Featuring delicately cut imagery of shooting stars\, the Milky Way\, hunting owls\, night pollinating plants and insects\, the sculpture is a tribute to the visible stars\, creatures\, and plants that thrive under Northumberland’s pristine dark skies.  \n\n\n\nAs visitors step into the darkened gallery\, the sculptures will cast intricate shadows of these paper-cut creations onto the walls\, creating an immersive and emotional artwork that is nothing short of theatrical. \n\n\n\nNoctalgia is a new term invented by astronomers to describe the pain associated with losing access to the night sky due to light pollution: “noctalgia\,” meaning “sky grief.” This particularly resonates with our diminishing access to dark skies in the city\, as electric light sources trespasses ever-more into our starscape. \n\n\n\nCommissioned by Northumberland National Park Authority and generously supported by the Sir James Knott Trust\, this innovative exhibition has been created by visual artist Bethan Maddocks\, in collaboration with community groups and visitors through creative activities and workshops. \n\n\n\nThe Noctalgia exhibition forms a key part of Ouseburn Dark Skies\, a long weekend celebrating our nocturnal wildlife and exploring ways to restore and protect our dark skies for wildlife and people. Discover the full Ouseburn Dark Skies programme here. \n\n\n\nWe are incredibly grateful to Bethan Maddocks and Northumberland National Park for partnering with Wild Intrigue to share this exhibition through Ouseburn Dark Skies\, to shed light on the interconnectedness between our natural world and the celestial wonders within the darkness above. \n\n\n\nWith thanks to Malings Community Fund for their support in Ouseburn Dark Skies. \n\nImage: Noctalgia artwork in The Sill | Kate Buckingham \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNOCTALGIA LAUNCH EVENT with BETHAN MADDOCKS \n\n\n\nFRIDAY 24TH MARCH 6pm – 7.30pm \n\n\n\n\n\nEXHIBITION OPENING HOURS\n\n\n\nFRIDAY 24TH MARCH    \n\n10am – 5pm \n\n\n\nSATURDAY 23RD MARCH    \n\n10am – 2pm \n\n5pm – 7pm \n\n\n\nSUNDAY 24TH MARCH    \n\n10am – 7pm \n\n\n\nMONDAY 25TH MARCH    \n\n10am – 5pm \n\n\n\nNo need to book\, just come by

SUMMARY:Breakfast with Red Squirrels
DESCRIPTION:Immerse yourself in the arboreal life of the Red Squirrel\, in the mossy woodlands of RSPB Haweswater in the eastern Lake District National Park. Based from Wild Intrigue’s comfortable Woodland Wildlife Hide in beautiful Naddle Forest\, you will spend a morning watching the antics of Red Squirrels whilst enjoying a locally sourced\, cold breakfast board. \n\n\n\nWith intimate views from the hide\, and the shared expertise of a Wild Intrigue guide\, you will discover the fascinating ecology of the Red Squirrel and its woodland home along with an array of birdlife. \n\n\n\nScampering Red Squirrels in treetops were once a common sight throughout the whole of the UK\, with historic population estimated at 3.5 million individuals. Now\, due to the pressures of reduced food\, habitat availability and disease\, largely brought by the introduction of the North American Grey Squirrels\, the UK Red Squirrel population has dramatically declined to 120\,000 individuals\, with only around 15\,000 Reds remaining in England. \n\n\n\nBut there is hope! Scotland and Northern England remain strongholds for Red Squirrels\, with teams of dedicated conservationists working together to protect the scamping of Reds in our treetops for future generations to enjoy. \n\n\n\nThe work undertaken at RSPB Haweswater makes an outstanding contribution to Red Squirrel conservation in in the Lake District National Park. By protecting Naddle Forest\, a semi-ancient Atlantic oak woodland\, Reds have abundant foraging and nesting opportunities\, and by planting tens of thousands of fruit and nut bearing trees over the years\, this vital habitat will be expanded and protected to ensure the future survival of Reds Squirrels at Haweswater. \n\n\n\nWe are proud to host this experience at RSPB Haweswater. For every Breakfast with Red Squirrels ticket sold\, you will be helping to support the conservation of Red Squirrels at this beautiful reserve.
