Brilliant boxes for birds

Brilliant boxes for birds

  • Comments 0

Hi everyone,

Today is the last day of February half-term.  We had a great day, making hand-made homes for all sorts of birds.

In the end, families made over 30 boxes to take home to gardens all over the Tees Valley ... one is even making its way to Israel! Wow!

We've got to say a huge thank you to Robin and Sue who provided everything (especially their best singing voices!) for the event.  All of the proceeds from the nestbox building will go towards looking after the two mobility scooters that they donated to Saltholme.  Even bigger wow!

If you're looking for ideas for your garden, come and see us at Saltholme to find out what you can do to help bees, butterflies, hedgehogs and nuthatches.

Bye for now,

Ben.
