Fantastic webinar! Any local groups close to luton in Bedfordshire? Is there a cut-off time for putting boxes up? Thank you 😊

It looks like your nearest local group is the one in Harpenden group.rspb.org.uk/harpenden/ but do take a look at our map of local groups to check www.rspb.org.uk/helping-nature/support-the-rspb/find-a-local-group-near-you . You can put nestboxes up at any time. Swifts are arriving now so you may not catch their nesting season this year but hopefully they'll find your nestboxes in the future!

Seen here in Lancashire ❤ This year we have a bird feeding station, two nest boxes. We have blue tits nesting and loads of other birds feeding, I'm so glad I started bringing nature to my garden is so lovely 💯💕🪺🐦🦔🐦‍⬛
