bird box making on Saturday!

Posted on July 14, 2015 by Kerry Hood

We had a great time painting bird boxes and making insect feeding stations and insect hotels!

Even the weather smiled on us! Many thanks to Emma for organising the event, and Caroline and Sandy for helping her, especially as Sandy didn’t feel very well.  Sandy and Emma also worked out how to make insect hotels and feeding stations (I’d never heard of either!)

Mark has very kindly collected suitable, untreated, wood for us from The Mayflower project (they are rebuilding the famous ship) in Harwich:

“I’ve got the back of the car full of offcuts from The Mayflower in Harwich. Loads of nice untreated oak for bat, bird and bug boxes.” (FB post, 11th July)

Thanks to the many of you who came along and made it a wonderful day! And to Rebecca for all that organising, to Stephen Tickner for helping us set it up and just being there, to Michelle for all those diet-busting delicious cakes (myself, I had too many of those), Cassie for the Tombola, Emma and the local businesses for the Tombola prizes, 3rd Bromley scouts for their tents, tug-of-war rope and expertise, and everyone else who helped out, who are too many to list!

Come and have fun while supporting Whitehall Rec on their Easter Egg hunt!

Our friends at Whitehall Rec have laid on tea (and coffee) and cakes, while the little ones (and big kids) can hunt down those elusive easter eggs!

And when they’re tired of running about, you can try your luck on the Tombola, Lucky Dip and Pick an Egg!
