The RSPB are inviting Lichfield residents to get stuck into some hands-on activities to mark Feed The Birds Day.

The event is designed to highlight the importance of feeding garden birds through the colder weather.

Staff and volunteers from RSPB Middleton Lakes will be at Lichfield Library on October 24 from 9.30am to 3.30pm.

The free event will give visitors the chance to make simple bird feeders, find out more about the wildlife in their garden and join in a range of other fun activities.

For more information about Middleton Lakes, contact [email protected], or call 01827 259454.
