The Derbyshire Wildlife Trust were wonderful partners at yesterday’s Hen Harrier Day event at Carsington Water. Not only was Tim Birch an inspiring speaker, and not only did Derbyshire Wildlife Trust members turn out in large numbers, but they also produced a fantastic book of writing about Hen Harriers (pictured above being waved around by Chris Packham).
Diane Gould brought this collection together and four of the children who contributed read out their marvellous words on stage.
It looks like a small thing, but the 12 pages are packed with moving and beautiful words about Hen Harriers.
Thank you to the Derbyshire Wildlife Trust and thank you to:
