A short introduction
My name is Allan Archer, and I run talk: Wildlife.
I provide natural history education and activities in Norfolk, but will go further afield. In addition, I help promote wildlife and its conservation through interviews on my YouTube channel.
I first launched talk: Wildlife as an online wildlife and conservation magazine in 2000 – before the ‘blogging’ explosion! It has It has taken many forms since and in 2022, after many years of contemplation, I took talk: Wildlife to the next level, by launching it as a natural history education business.
I have bases at the following three sites.
Wymondham
The ‘Nest’ – a large wooden barn – sits in the 20-acre grounds of the outstanding Forest School for Life in Silfield, Wymondham. I run indoor and outdoor activities from here.
A purpose built bird hide over-looking the Cley Spy gardens with its many bird feeders. I use the hide, garden and surrounding countryside to deliver various wildlife activities.
An area of stunningly refurbished pingo ponds (kettle lakes) and woodland on the Kemp Farm. A great area, with a variety of wildlife habitats and species, I use for my outdoor activities.
WITH THANKS!
I am very grateful to my key sponsor, Cley Spy and the following supporters. They make it possible for me to keep prices for the talk: Wildlife services as low as possible so I can achieve my vision and mission.
