Attenborough

A large turn out on a lovely sunny day at Bramcote Hill's Park. We looked at the health of trees by measuring them and looking for diseases of oak, ash and horse chesnut trees. This was part of an OPAL survey which will help scientists find out what is happening to our trees in England.

This is their den.

Tim, Charlotte and Zoe are showing off the den they made in the woodland at Elvaston. We saw lots of elves too, did they keep on moving to different places when we weren't looking?

We listened to a slide show telling us how to identify waterfowl and then went out and identified lots. We also saw a buzzard sitting on a telegraph pole watching us watching the ducks!

We made nest boxes for our gardens from a flat pack kit.
Those nails were hard to hammer in!
