We have been watching the birds in our garden and helping them survive the winter by making sure they have water and sustaining food. A great variety have come down to our garden haven. It’s the time of year when the RSPB ask us to do the garden bird survey and you can join in their campaign to monitor our feathered friends. The 23rd-25th January is the allocated weekend to spend a couple of hours watching your garden birds. Maybe get the children involved ?

If you see anything especially interesting why not send it to the Embsay & Eastby post? We’d all love to hear about it.
