Birdwatching Day 2

After setting up bird feeders and tables in the previous week, Vigo Schools' birdwatching day arrived with a great deal of anticipation and excitement. Accompanied by tally charts (and pictures to help us) we visited various viewpoints set up around school to keep a careful lookout for our feathered visitors.

Woodpeckers, nuthatches, blue tits, pigeons, sparrows and blackbirds were among those seen in varying numbers.

The afternoon saw the children creating models of birds from junk materials. The models were judged and the winners announced in Friday's assembly.



Mr Barber took the winning entries to Millbrook Garden Centre.
