Show the Cubs the picture of the birds and see if they can identify

Play the sounds of the bird calls and get them to identify.

Explain that, although we will build a bird feeder, they should be careful about feeding wild birds:

1. Make sure that you remove food that has got wet and is going mouldy

2. Keep it clean

3. Supplement - so don't feed all the time so that the birds become dependent

4. High enough so cats, etc. can't get to the birds
