We are a friendly group of nature enthusiasts and for anyone with an interest in evolution and biology. We meet mainly for talks in the autumn season, and field trips during the spring when flowering plants can best be enjoyed. Our main topics are the fauna and flora of Cyprus, but we are open to any natural history subject, and welcome guest speakers.
For our talks, we meet for refreshments from 10.30, and have the talk from 11.00 - 12.00. Field trips usually 10.45. Afterwards we generally go somewhere nearby for a convivial lunch.
Dave and Ros have been studying and photographing the wildlife of Cyprus for almost 20 years, and produced a couple of books: "The Amphibians and Reptiles of Cyprus" and "Wildlife of Cyprus", the latter with 44 authors and over 1100 photos from 100 photographers.
The group also benefits from members with extensive knowledge of wild flowers.
If you send us an email, you may also like to drop Ros a brief phone text, since emails from unfamiliar addresses can sometimes be blocked.
