What a fantastic green day we had - the bug hotel looks awesome and we found lots of bugs and beasts to fill it up! My job for the day was to take the children on nature hunts looking for all the different types of wildlife that live in our school grounds. The children really enjoyed looking under all the stones and logs, picking up worms and slugs and trying to count the legs on the centipedes.....this is what we found:

| Our wildlife sightings board |

| Hawthorn Shield Bug |
 |
| Snail |
 |
| Leopard Slug |
 |
| Black Beetle |
Bugs: ants, spiders, ladybirds, centipede, earwig, hoverfly, black beetle, caterpillar, bumble bees, earthworms, leopard slugs, snails, woodlice, blackfly, greenfly, a white butterfly and my favourite Bug of the Day - two hawthorn shield bugs.
We also kept our eyes and ears open for birds and saw or heard:
blue tit, blackbirds, starling, woodpigeons, swifts, magpies, crows, great tit and definitely Bird of the Day was a magnificant sparrowhawk!
Thanks to all the children for their enthusiasm during green day, I hope you had a lot of fun
