Recording-Into the Venezuelan Rainforest

20th October 2022 was the first indoor meeting of our 2022-23 winter programme of talks.

The guest speaker this month was Educationalist and Research Ecologist Dr Alan Donaldson.

His presentation “Into the Venezuelan Rainforest: In the Steps of Colonel Fawcett” was about his taking a group of school pupils from Rannoch School in Perthshire on an expedition to explore and understand the wildlife and people of the South American rainforest.

This post is to make the Zoom recording of Alan’s talk available to anyone at anytime.

Here is the link to the presentation which does not require you to leave our website. Enjoy
