Bird Cakes

Back to News
2nd Feb 2020

We made bird cakes using lard, seeds and fruits.  The weather is colder and it can be difficult for the bird to find worms or mini beasts to eat.  We placed the bird cakes around the garden and then waited for them to arrive.  As part of the Big Bird Watch we observed the different types of birds that visited the garden - the seagulls and crows were enormous!
