Residents encouraged to give nature a home

Leamington Editorial 22nd Jan, 2017   0

IT IS not just birds people are being urged to look out for during the annual Big Garden Birdwatch.

Leamington Art Gallery & Museum are working with the RSPB, as part of the Giving Nature a Home initiative, to encourage people to welcoming hedgehogs and insects into gardens as well as counting the different birds out and about.

The RSPB will show families how to bird watch using telescopes and binoculars, people can also make their own bird blow darts and apple feeders to take home for their feathered friends on Saturday (January 28) from 1pm to 3pm.

During museum’s first Big Garden Birdwatch event in 2014 a King Fisher and Peregrine Falcon were spotted near to the River Leam.




The event is open to all and free to attend.

* LEAMINGTON Art Gallery & Museum will be hosting free Art Cart Extra events.


People can get messy with air drying clay on February 25 and enjoy Japanese spring flower crafts on March 25.
