Bird Identification Workshop

 

Over the weekend we had our Bird Identification Workshop. Here are just a few pictures taken throughout the day....

The day started off in the classroom...

Different feet
 
Whos who?
 
Can you identify all of these garden birds?



After our talk about garden birds and how to identify them through sight and sound, we now had to go and put some of the newly learnt knowledge into practice on a walk down to 
Morden Hall Park.

Apparently, putting your hands behind your ears like this 
helps you to hear the birds. 
Thank you to Michelle for demonstrating this beautifully to us!







 
Wheres the bird? 

Can you spot and identify the birds in the next two photographs?
