PRESS RELEASE - 2008 AGM
Animal Behaviour at AGM
No, not a description of Northern Rock shareholders nor of yobs after a night out, but of something happening here in Highland Perthshire, at the Tryst in Pitlochry on 15 Mar 08. Have I got your attention? Good! Please read on.
The study of Animal Behaviour is one of the specialities of Aubrey Manning, Emeritus Professor of Natural History at Edinburgh University. His is a familiar voice and face on radio and television on such programmes as "Earth Story", & "The Sounds of Life". So, come along and listen to this well-known raconteur.
His talk, titled "Life & the Earth; Interlocking History", will follow the formal but fairly brief AGM of Highland Perthshire Communities Land Trust, your Trust, currently managing Community Land, your land, at Dùn Coillich.
There will be some displays and exhibitions. Find out about the recently built Observation & Educational Facility. Meet the trustees and give them the benefit of your opinions. You could join the Trust. You can offer suggestions for the development/management of Dùn Coillich, not just for this year but also for the next 50+ years when the trees just planted will have grown, renewing the habitat, creating biodiversity and helping to offset climate change. We need your ideas, your energy, your involvement in what is your land. Make Dùn Coillich a place for you, your children, and your children's children.
If this is asking too much, please come along and listen to Aubrey anyway.
So, everyone and anyone, come along, listen, talk, and participate over a glass of wine.
