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. 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. You will finish with complimentary tea and coffee served in our Observatory, offering great views over our main lake. The Centre opens at 10:00 am when you are welcome to head out and explore the rest of the site.
