Intro
Few things are more beautiful than listening to birds and catching the odd glimpse of a feathery friend in the garden. This relaxing, quiet and meditative activity is perfect if you can get outside and equally lovely to enjoy through the window.
What you need
- Encourage birds to the garden by placing the following items in a central place that can be viewed easily from inside and out:
- A bird feeder full with food
- A bird bath
The Activity
- Take a stroll into the garden and find a comfortable spot a short distance away from the bird feeders and bath
- Don’t sit too close to the feeder and bath, as too much movement might scare away the birds
- Sit patiently and keep an eye out for any feathered friends who might stop by for some food and a little splash around
- Enjoy being in the garden, soaking up the atmosphere and the sights
- Head back indoors and encourage conversations about all the birds you’ve seen
