RSPB Big Garden Bird Watch 2023

As part of the RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch this weekend, we have been learning all about birds in our woodland sessions. The children have loved gathering twigs, sticks and branches to make their own nests. We have plenty of nature books, helping us with information such as identifying the birds and learning about their appearance, habitat and diet. The children have been using binoculars and bird ID sheets, ticking off which birds that they have spotted in the garden and woodland area. We were fortunate to have a real bird's nest, (that was old and disused for many years), for the children to handle and learn how to use gentle hands.

Are you taking part in the bird watch? We have lot's of Starlings in our garden and a little Wren visits regularly.
