About the event

Winter can be a hard time for our feathered friends and finding enough food to keep warm can be difficult. Give them a helping hand by making them a bird feeder using upcycled mugs! We'll also learn about what different birds eat and you can decorate a wooden bird to take home.

We'll supply the mugs for this activity but if you'd like to bring along your own mugs to upcycle too, we can supply the food to fill these for £1 per mug (subject to availability).

We'll be using lard and bird seed so may not be suitable for vegetarians, vegans or those with nut allergies.

Are you a member of the Wildlife Trust BCN? You can get money off your ticket by selecting a member ticket (we may ask for your membership number upon arrival for verification purposes).
