Discovery Sunday -
Give a Bird an Abode!
Join us for a fun day out at Dove Stone Reservoir as part of the 16th Annual National Nest Box Week and help give a bird a home.
On Sunday 22nd Feb the RSPB and abirdabode project artists are joining forces at Ashway Gap to help you to give a bird a home.
Join us between 11am – 3pm for activities that include:
• Making a simple nest box for your garden*
• Decorating a bird silhouette to become part of the abirdabode exhibition at Gallery Oldham
• Learn about nest boxes and helping birds in your garden
• Get a sneak preview of some of the amazing abirdabode Art Birdboxes made by Oldham groups
• Chat to the RSPB experts about local conservation
• Get a glimpse of the Peregrine Falcons as they start their nest building **
Discovery Sunday runs from 11am to 3pm at Ashway Gap picnic area, about half way round the main trail. It is a drop-in event, the art activities are free, but there is a charge to make your own nest box
