There will be opportunities at two local sites in the East Riding to take part in the RSPB Big Garden Bird Watch 2019.

At Sewerby Hall and Gardens, on Saturday 26 and Sunday 27 January, from 11am – 3pm, there will be a chance to come along and make apple feeders to help feed the birds in your garden. Visitors will also be able to find out about how they can help ‘give nature a home’ and learn exactly what the Big Garden Bird Watch is all about. The Big Garden Bird Watch events on both days are free.

For full details of all the events and activities over that weekend at Sewerby Hall and Gardens (including activities in the zoo : fat ball feeders on 26 January, and fruit kebabs on 27 January), visit www.sewerbyhall.co.uk

Admission charges apply to the zoo and the house.

On Sunday, 27 January, there will also be a chance to take part in the Big Garden Birdwatch at Humber Bridge Country Park bird feeding station. Visitors can count the finches, tits and robins to help understand how each species is doing this year, and also feed them and make a bird feeder to take home.

Meet at the bird feeding station in the meadow at Humber Bridge Country Park (park in the Hessle Foreshore car park next to the black mill and follow signs to the meadow). The free event will be from 10am -12 noon, and booking is essential, via www.bridspa.com/eventsor by calling 01482 3953420 in office hours.
