Children at Nayland Playgroup were very excited by a visit from the ‘Owl Man’ Phil Eckett. Phil showed us owls from Australia, Africa and Asia as well as some native British birds. We saw baby owls that were huge and adult owls that were tiny. One could even make itself smaller or bigger. We watched them fly (and walk) across the school hall and one even took a rest on the overhead projector. We stroked their soft feathers and learnt about what they eat and the different ways they hunt for food.
