About the event

How do birds survive in human-made environments? What adaptations have they made to thrive here? And how can we help them?

Find out the answers to these questions and more on this fascinating walk and talk delivered by London Wildlife Trust staff.

We’ll delve into the ecology and biology of urban birds, before heading off on a bird-spotting walk around the gardens to see what we can find. You’ll see that nature always finds a way, even in the heart of the city!

We have a limited number of binoculars to lend; please bring your own if you have them.

This event is aimed at adults aged 18+, but can be inclusive for young people aged 11 and above, who must be accompanied by an adult.

Further information will be sent out prior to the event.

The birds here are wild animals, so we can’t guarantee sightings of particular species. However, this unpredictability is all part of the joy of birding!

All proceeds from this event enable London Wildlife Trust's mission of nature recovery for a thriving city.
