The Natural History Section was formed in 1947 by Nora Barlow, granddaughter of Charles Darwin, with the purpose of
arranging an annual programme of field meetings and talks for members of the Society who wished to explore the County’s
wildlife and geology.
In recent years interest in the section's activities has waned among Society members, and no programme was planned for
2012-13. The Natural History Section is now considering whether the level of interest is sufficient to justify a separate programme of
walks and talks as in previous years.
If you would like to contribute to this discussion,

Mike Palmer, at Buckinghamshire County Museum Resource Centre, by phone on 01296 624519,
