Derbyshire Wildlife Trust is holding a one–day Investigating Mammals course at Severn Trent Carsington Water on Saturday, January 19.

Those who attend will be able to learn how to identify mammals from the signs they leave behind by taking a close look at nests and homes, tracks, droppings, hairs and bones.
