Big Schools' Birdwatch

Watch from your window

If it is raining, why not watch from the window? You could always paint of print some leaves onto paper to put against the window. Remember to leave some peep holes!

Thanks to the children of Wrestlingworth Primary School.

Camouflage is key

It's a good idea to try to hide as much as possible and blend into your surroundings....

Enthusiatic birdwatchers

It's a good idea to work in pairs or small groups to make sure you don't miss anything when doing your birdwatch.
