About the event

Spring is a very busy time of year for birds! Join us as we learn about their fantastic nest building techniques and identify their distinctive calls.

Please note that this is a children's event.

Wildlife Watch is our monthly series of Saturday sessions where children explore nature together, from spotting raptors and seals to hunting for bugs and getting crafty, with the option of working towards the Hedgehog Award. Join every month or drop in when you can.
