In 2021 we will be keeping a diary of all the wildlife events taking place at the Cambridge University Botanic Garden as spring unfolds. Follow us on social media in the lead up to the Cambridge Festival as we share some of our wildlife diary entries.
Join us at 2pm on Sunday 28 March to explore the Museum of Zoology with this film by conservation experts and discover the wildlife conservation success stories behind the animals on display.

Crafting materials at the ready – join us in an online craft club as we create nests together using different techniques, and find out from expert Dr Jenny York how different species of birds create their nests. Share your creations with us after the event! We will be using materials you can find at home, recycling materials where possible, to create a nest you could use as an Easter decoration. We will send information about materials and equipment as well as joining instructions when you book.
This event is suitable for ages 8+
