17th May - Bird Watching with David Winnard
Saturday 17th May
9am - 12pm
Your ticket includes a breakfast pastry from Hawarden Estate Farm Shop.
During this morning walk across Hawarden Estate we’ll be looking at how to identify a variety of species that occur on this great estate. We’ll do this both visually as well as learning some of the bird songs and calls we encounter on our walk.
The grounds are the home of some wonderful bird species such as both the Green and Great Spotted Woodpeckers, Nuthatch, Treecreeper as well as Sparrowhawks, Tawny Owls and Buzzard.
This will be a relaxed walk and birdwatch through garden, open countryside and some woodland as we look to encounter a wide array of species.
If you have ever wanted to learn how to identify the commoner species of bird but did not know where to start, or you’re interested on what birds species are on the estate, then this is the event for you!
