Aren’t Birds Brilliant in the New Forest
The New Forest is home to some of our rarest and most exciting birds, thanks to the rich habitat and careful management of this beautiful landscape.
Join us to see the action up close. Using the latest hi-tech gadgets, you'll see right into the tree-top nests of the New Forest's wild birds of prey and watch their every move - from eggs hatching to food arriving and chicks leaving.
Staff will be on hand to answer all your questions about Forest life, and you can find out how you can do your bit to help wildlife in the New Forest.
Where?
The video link will be at the Forestry Commission's New Forest Reptile Centre, where you can also see our six native reptiles, two miles south-west of Lyndhurst on the A35.
When and how much?
Daily from 1 April to 31 August 2008, between 10.00am and 4.30pm. Entry is free, but donations for parking are welcome.
