Abingdon Naturalists' Society was set up in 1967 by wildlife lovers, to give an opportunity to learn about the natural world around us, promote conservation, and - just as important - to get out and see it in the company of experts and friends.

SIGHTINGS
Most of Abingdon Naturalists' Society group activities have been put on hold during the present covonavirus crisis.
