Brilliant Birds Week

To celebrate the natural world, we will be releasing seasonal sessions this year, with the second being our Brilliant Birds Theme Day, which we will running from Monday 23rd February to Friday 27th February 2026. Learn to identify the birds that live here at Stanwick Lakes, learn how they have adapted to our woodland and wetland habitats and get involved in hands-on conservation activities to help protect them. Perfect for those learning about ‘Animals, including humans’ and ‘Living things and their habitats.’
