Wildlife in Badsey and the Surrounding Area

Ian Gibson took us on an informative tour of the wildlife in the local area – we had no idea there was so much wildlife teeming in our gardens!  Ian is beginning to share his photographic collection in a new section on the website called “Nature Notes”.  In the second part of the evening, Ian talked about his study of the work of the Reverend William Squire Rufford, Curate at Badsey 1813-1819, whose interest in botany gives us a glimpse of the wealth of wild plants that were growing in the Badsey area 200 years ago.
