Take part in a winter bird walk, explore the art of stained glass making & dive into the fun at Mudfest!
Winter Bird Walk: 1 February
WWT London Wetland Centre is a marvellous location for bird watching and at this time of year, for "bird listening" too! As songbirds declare their territories and attempt to attract a mate they're often hidden away in the dense foliage of trees or reed beds. So, getting to know them by the sounds they make is very handy whatever your level of interest in birds and wildlife. In this 1½ hour session you'll learn how to identify birds through song, guided by one of our experts through useful tips, notes and fieldwork.
Time: 8:30 am - 10:00 am (Duration: 90 mins)
Price: £25 non-members, £22.50 members
