Henry's Wildlife and Nature

 Yesterday we went to the Wildlife Connections Festival at Chester Zoo. This festival is all about how you can help nature and your local environment. In the first field there was a stage where live music is being played all day. Also in the first field there was the Connections Corner where you could take part in activities from local wildlife partners, willow weaving and hedgehog highways. In there I also talked to a man who is in a part of a group called RECORD , this is a website which allows the public to record whatever wildlife they see whether its common or rare, in your garden or when your out on a walk. This allows them to keep track what is around the local area. RECORD only covers Cheshire, but they told me about COFNOD which covers North Wales. I'm definitely going to start recording what I see. Opposite there was Den Building and the Creative Corner where we did some drumming. In the second field, which was the nature reserve, there was a tent called Bug Basecamp whe

 Also on our trip in Norfolk we visited RSPB Snettisham. We saw a few Oystercatchers, Oystercatcher chicks, Canada Geese, Bees and Grasshoppers but our favourite were the Common Lizards    Common Lizards Common Lizards can live up to 6 years old and can grow up to 15cm long.

Common Lizards incubate their eggs inside of them and give birth when they have hatched. There were about 6 or 7 of them and one young one curled up in a ball sleeping. This is the young one
