Stanford Stretton''s Bird Fair 2011

About the Stretton''s Bird Fair 
 

The birds are preening their feathers to be in time for this year''s Bird Fair and to look their best for the annual Stanford Birding Photographic Competition.

Apart from putting together an array of top class bird speakers we have decided to including ecologically important non-birding events such as the fascinating Strandlopers cave at de Kelders. The popular Eagle Encounters plus a variety of other special activities aimed at children will take place during the Fair.
 

Boating trips will be running the whole weekend along with the excellent Stanford Farmers market on Friday, 30th September.
Keep an eye on the program for up to date details of all events and outings.
