Feedback from a participant in an event for land managers at Raveningham, Norfolk
This was a magical and inspired crack of dawn event... our native birds are all out there doing their thing. So hard to engage with them without someone to get you started, but once you get started with one or two, you have definitely stepped through the Wardrobe of Narnia.

Feedback from Schools
"The team got them involved really quickly, and gave us great material for incorporating into maths, geography and science. The children loved taking the birdsong they'd recorded outside and putting it into Raven, Audacity and Thumbjam. It was really enjoyable and interesting".
The children learned three or four birds they'll be able to identify now and they will definitely continue with an interest in birds. The Sam Jones, Hopton Primary School.
"The children greatly enjoyed it, and are proud of the results of the work. Many were pleased to share the video with their families via the school website.
I feel that your work really inspired the children, especially in the area of music.
Thank you again for all you have done for our school."
