Fun in the Forest this week

Nature provided us with lots of intrigue this week as a dead bird was discovered on site. Some children were very keen to examine the bird using gloves and looked closely at the different parts. They used a tape measure to assess the size of the bird. We soon discovered it was a seagull. One child stared, "I'll call you surgeon squirrel, surgeon lion and surgeon jaguar." 
A great adaptation to their normal forest school names!  
Others looked on from a distance and enjoyed relaxing in the hammock, using the blind trail in pairs and lighting small fires.
