Birdwatching Club

This term has been extremely enjoyable for Birdwatching Club as we have been thoroughly active even during this period of lockdown. 

This week, a dramatic event occurred in Mr Porter’s garden, where his spotted flycatcher young have unfortunately been predated on, likely by great spotted woodpeckers.

Many thanks to everybody who has helped along the way and we look forward to continuing in September at school or online.
