Wings on the marsh is a birdwatching course for everyone, designed for those who love being in nature and want to learn to observe and recognise the bird species found in different environments. The programme combines two evening theory sessions, dedicated to the basics and identification criteria, with two field trips to put the acquired knowledge into practice. The evening sessions are held at the "Emma Perodi" Municipal Library in Cerreto Guidi, while the field trips take place at the Padule di Fucecchio and Lake Gherardesca. The course is free, with mandatory registration and a maximum of 25 participants. It is promoted by the Municipality of Cerreto Guidi with Natura in Toscana and LIPU, with the contribution of the Tuscany Region.
