BIRD lovers are being invited to join a guided walk of a winter refuge for birds.

Gravesend RSPB will look for wildfowl and wading birds at the Elmley reserve on the Isle of Sheppey on January 21.

The group will also look for marsh harriers and other birds of prey.

The free walk is open to anyone from experts to novices.

Walkers are urged to wear appropriate clothing and footwear depending on the conditions.

The group will meet in the reserve's car park at 10am.
