Adrian Norris of the Yorkshire Naturalists' Union has offered to run a Mollusc
Identification evening for members.
The venue will be my back garden starting at 6.30pm.
So, if you are interested in coming, please feel free to bring along any slugs
and snails gathered from your garden (or from other local sites) (but I will
be asking if you can take your specimens back with you!)
Light refreshments will be available to attendees and there will be an indoor
area for identification using a microscope or field guides.
Please let me know if you will be coming so I can plan refreshments.
