never we expected that we’d finish them. In the end, we did every­


thing we wanted to. “We had helpers from ali

and everyone deserves a pat on the back.” .


The ground had been look­ ing worse for wear after the


hard winter and needed a lot ofwork. The volunteers painted


the boundary walls, repaired the wicket, prepared the all- weather pitches, and tidied up where drainage work had . been carried out. Plant hire firm Anthony

Naturalists’ latest lecture: ‘Aren’t birds wonderful?’


. The winter season of lectures was brought to a close as Clit­ heroe Naturalists heard Stuart Meredith’s illustrated presen­ tation entitled “Aren’t Birds Wonderful’’ at the St Mary’s Centre, i; The audience learned that the characteristics of the 10,000 strong species are numbered ie. all are warm blooded, have feathers, a backbone and all lay eggs, Some birds like the ostrich are massive and can move at 70 Ira per hour and the smaUest, the humming­ bird about the size of a bee can beat'its.wings 80 times ' persecorid. ,,


. . ' . Stuart concentrated on


the'yaried sometimes bizarre habits and physical peculiar­


ities. Some birds are plainly ugly such as the giant petrel. The green-backed heron ac­ tually throws breadcrumbs into the waters to attract the fish. Puffins’ mouths are con­ structed with spikes which stop their prey, the sand eels, finm escaping andean usually hold 12 in the mouth at once, though a rare 60 has been re­ corded, Gannets have a third eye-lid which protects their eyes as they make swift ver­ tical dives. Owls have a facial


: ‘saucer! which concentrates sound and their ears are set at diggertentlieights. Heads can turn thr ough 280°. Kiwis have ■ hair-like feathers and, unusu- ^ ally, marrow in their bones. The femafe lays an enormous


egg, which takes up a third of her body size, the male then incubates for 62 days. Migrating birds travel great


distances as far as from Alas-, ka to Australia agreat trial for small birds such as sander- lings. . The photographs - close


ups and the textures of sur­ rounding backgrounds of water and trees, made this an exceptional and ‘brilliant’ lecture - a wonderful finish to theNaturalists’winterseason. • Chairman Muriel Car-


ruthers thanked .Stuart Meredith on behalf of the audience who now look for­ ward to the summer season ofwalks. For details ring the 0120053864.
