About the event

Join us for a morning filled with bird themed activities at Summer Leys to learn all about our feathered friends and how you can help them at home. Some of the things we'll get up to may include:

  • Visiting a bird hide to see what we can spot whilst we play bird bingo
  • Learning all about different bird adaptations
  • Creating bird feeders
  • Owl pellet dissection
  • Bird themed crafts

We'll end the session with some time to relax in our private education area, where you can learn some fire lighting skills to create a small campfire for us to toast marshmallows over! If you'd like to bring any other snacks or lunch to enjoy around the campfire for this section please feel free to.
