Wild families: nest box building
Bradfield Woods National Nature Reserve,
Bradfield Woods, Felsham Road, Bradfield St George, Bury St Edmunds , Suffolk, IP30 0AQEvent details
About the event
Come and make a nest box and bird feeder to encourage more birds to live in your garden and help us make a wilder Suffolk. We’ll have everything you need to make your nest box and we’ll help guide you through the process.
These boxes will be made using local, sustainable wood from Bridge Wood, part of Orwell Country Park in Ipswich. The non-native pine trees in Bridge Wood are gradually being removed in order to replant with native species. This will also open up other areas allowing more light through, benefitting a wealth of different species. The trees have been felled and processed by the Greenways Countryside Project along with volunteers from Ipswich Wildlife Group.
We’d love to know where you put your nest box. Share a photo and add to our interactive map – suffolkwildlifetrust.org/map-your-wild-actions
