Make a bird feeder for your garden
Drop into the Visitor Centre and make a bird feeder to take home - your garden birds will thank you! Donations welcome.
- Booking not needed
- Free event
Starting with a pine cone, we will provide everything you need to make a simple bird feeder that will give the garden birds a tasty snack. The cold weather can be a tricky time for birds, so let's give them a helping hand.
Why not go for walk and spot some winter birds while you are here, or drop into the Docky Hut Cafe?
