We're pleased to bring you our fourth annual outing to view the starling murmuration at Ham Wall.

Behold Somerset's spectacular starling murmuration at the Ham Wall Nature Reserve, Glastonbury on a seven-mile afternoon and early evening walk. We'll take a five-mile linear walk to reach to the best spot to view the glorious display of starlings preparing to descend to roost for the night. The whole walk is level on metalled roads and tracks and you will be walking the final two miles back to the start in Glastonbury in darkness. If you're cautious about walking in the dark, you may want to carry a hand torch.

You can view the murmuration, without doing the walk, by driving and parking at RSPB, Ham Wall. You'll find the walking group at the main viewing spot about 3:30.

As this outing will end at 5:30pm, it will be followed by an evening meal together in Glastonbury. Please register for this on the separate event, which will be posted on the GOC website (Pub Dining, Glastonbury, Somerset) in September.
