FEATHERED friends were the topic of a Winter Woodlands Bird class at Daisy Nook Country Park.

The fun-filled afternoon taught budding birdwatchers how to identify woodland and garden birds.

Youngsters enjoyed making an apple bird feeder to help them through the last of the winter months.

The class was run by Hugo Charlton-Jones, from the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds.

Similar sessions were also held at Tandle Hill Country Park, Royton, and Brownhill Countryside Park, Dobcross.
