Course description

Join tutor Jane Williams in December, as she takes a look at the common garden birds you might see in the Christmas period, and how to encourage them to visit your garden more. Who doesn’t enjoy watching our native birds and some visiting ones, with their various colours, calls and songs, flitting about in our own back yards? Some of these will be winter visitors such as the Fieldfare, some will be present all year round, such as the “Christmas” Robin. Why is it associated with Christmas and winter, anyway?
