3 Day Environmental Adventure Day 1
Claire Coombe
Our environmental adventurers had an action packed first day today - after a brisk walk up the hill to camp they got stuck straight into archery with Charlie and then headed out on the river to explore the creeks off the Truro and Tresillian rivers. After a hearty dinner of bangers of mash we were treated to a visit from Nancy the Noctule who even demonstrated her echolocation for us which we were able to pick up with our bat detectors. We then headed out on a dusk walk along the hedgerows to see if there were any bats in the wild brave enough to venture out on this damp night! Turns out they were all tucked up in their roosts so we headed back to camp where we got cosy round the campfire and reflected on what an amazing first day we had enjoyed. Tomorrow we have silk screen t-shirt printing, climbing, forging, campfire cooking and a BBQ to look forward to followed by a Wild Woodland Walk.
