Description

2019 is the Year of the Fly, so celebrate these misunderstood invertebrates with our Field ID of Flies training course. This course will look at different types of fly and how to identify a select few distinctive species in the field. This course will include classroom sessions and practice at identifying live flies in the field or back in the classroom. Tutor: Martin Harvey.

Please note that this course is a course for beginners and absolutely no experience of flies is needed – just a passion for nature and learning more about wildlife that is often overlooked.

This course is heavily subsidised by the FSC BioLinks Project (funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund).
