So here it is, after a full week of bird watching and project development a (almost) complete guide to the Wild Life of Cramlington.
Wild About Cramlington guide.
I am meeting with the students tomorrow to run a final check and add the final map to the area.
This project would not have been possible without our wonderful volunteers who gave their time and expertise so generously. They both have great blogs on our local wildlife and birdlife in particular. Perhaps their biggest offering however was they helped the students that their learning matters to a wider community, which can explain the energy and care the students have put into producing this.
Please check out there blogs here: They both have posted about their experiences too!
