It's not just birds that visitors will be looking upwards to see this weekend. Thanks to the popularity of the current series of Star Gazing Live on BBC television we have had unprecedented demand for places on our own star gazing event at Middleton Lakes.
This coming Saturday evening we are hosting a Night with the Stars where visitors will be shown around the night time sky, spotting constellations, learning how to use star-charts and watching out for shooting stars.
Our two scheduled sessions were sold out within a few days and the demand for places is such that we will be running this event again very shortly - who needs birds to enjoy yourself on a reserve?
See you on the reserves,
Best regards,
Chris Edwards
