September 2007 Wednesday 26th	Welcome to the Group - Ken Bayliss followed by “The Future of Titchwell” – Ciaran Nelson & Rob Coleman. Whatever the causes of Global Warming, it’s definitely happening. How is the RSPB planning to cope with sea level rises at our popular reserve?
October 2007 Wednesday 24th	“Birds and Flowers of the Camargue and Alps” – Tony Cook MBE. Tony will encourage us to cross the Channel to explore these excellent areas for wildlife. (His MBE was awarded for services to Wildfowl and Conservation).
November 2007 Wednesday 28th	“Bird Islands” – Nick Williams. Nick’s presentations are second to none! He will show us a wealth of birds from the islands of North Norway and Western Scotland, the Farnes and Cape Verde.
December 2007 Friday 7th	Please note the change of evening and early position in the month – please bring raffle prizes and mince pies etc. for this Christmas Special. “Digital Images from Norway” – Chris Knights. Chris is a local farmer famous for helping to nurture our Stone Curlew populations and filming for the ITV Survival series. His excellent photography is matched by his humour. Norway might not be top of your list of birding venues. Perhaps Chris can change your mind. (I suspect there could be snow this Christmas).
January 2008 Wednesday 23th	“Roydon Common” – Bill Boyd. A lot has been happening at Roydon Common and the recently acquired Grimston Warren. What are the Norfolk Wildlife Trust’s plans and what can you see there? – not just birds.
February 2008 Wednesday 27th	“Wild Spain” – Steve Rowland. Enjoy Steve’s sparkling wit and great pictures as he shows us some of the best birds from some of the best birding areas in Spain.
March 2008 Wednesday 26th	“The Moroccan Experience” – Richard Pople. Richard is a past Group Leader from the Stevenage RSPB Local Group. Morocco is not too far away and most people visit for the sun and its fascinating culture. There are also good birds including Larks, Wheatears and Bald Ibis.
April 2008 Wednesday 23th	7.00pm: Annual General Meeting followed at 8.00pm by “Sculthorpe Moor” – Nigel Middleton. Nigel is the Conservation Officer for the Eastern Region of the Hawk and Owl Trust. We are hoping his presentation will entice a few of you to visit the Reserve with us, near Fakenham, on our Outdoor Programme.
