SUMMARY:Nest Box Monitoring Walk
DESCRIPTION:Help us to check the nest boxes on the nature reserve at Stanwick Lakes and meet some baby birds! \nEvery spring\, Stanwick Lakes conducts nest box monitoring as part of our contribution to the British Trust for Ornithology’s (BTO) national bird population survey. \nLed by experienced nest recorders\, trained and licensed by the British Trust for Ornithology (BTO)\, you are invited to witness these conservation efforts\, first hand. Our dedicated (licenced) volunteers monitor nests\, count eggs\, and tag young birds with metal rings for tracking\, providing valuable insights into the species that live in different habitats\, the success rates of breeding\, and the impact of climate change on bird populations. \nThis scheme has been running since 2007\, and over 3000 eggs have been monitored in that time!\nAt time of writing\, there are over 100 eggs so far this year! These are from a variety of birds such as Blue Tits\, Great Tits\, Stock Doves and Tawny Owls. \nThis walk will offer the opportunity to learn about birds on the reserve from knowledgeable ornithologists\, and potentially to see some of these birds up close\, particularly the beautiful baby tits\, if they’re yet to fledge. \nSo don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to meet the birds at Stanwick Lakes! Join us for the Nest Box Monitoring Walk on 16th May from 10am am to approximately noon. \nPlease note: this can be a longer walk for little legs than some of our usual family activities and is best suited to children aged 6+ (or younger children in buggies are welcome).\nParent/carer discretion is advised.

SUMMARY:Tinsmithing workshops
DESCRIPTION:This critically endangered heritage craft is being kept alive at Stanwick Lakes — and you can be a part of it! Learn the skills of tin-smithing from one of the last tinsmiths in the country. \nTinplate – a thin sheet of iron or steel coated with pure tin – is strong\, lightweight\, durable\, food safe and resembles silver. During the 18th and 19th centuries it was ubiquitous in home\, work and military life\, with every town having its own “Tinman & Brazier.” Tin-smithing is now classified by the Heritage Crafts Association as critically endangered and at serious risk of no longer being practised in the UK. \nDuring the day you’ll learn the core processes – measuring\, cutting with tin-snips\, burring\, forming\, wiring\, seaming and soldering — and make a wall hanging candle sconce plus your choice of a pastry cutter\, a candle holder\, or cup to take home. No experience is needed; the course is suitable for adults of any ability\, limited to six participants. Teenagers 16+ are welcome with adult supervision. \nThe course takes place in a purpose-built oak framed craft barn at Stanwick Lakes\, a protected Nature Reserve and Wetland of International Importance covering 750 acres. \nYour tutor is John Wills\, one of the last three professional tinsmiths in Britain. In 2022\, as part of a Heritage Crafts Association project to rescue tinsmithing\, he trained under master tinsmith Karl Schmidt (Dakota Tinworks\, USA) and subsequently built a new tinman & brazier workshop to keep the craft alive. He is a Yeoman of the Worshipful Company of Tinplate Workers Alias Wire Workers of the City of London. \nOur next course on June 13th is sold out\, but there are still a couple left on June 14th. \nFor more information or to book – click here.
