February Half Term at Birdland

Birdlland is open daily during February Half Term for family fun and adventures. Plus, a popular children’s author and illustrator will pay a flying visit to the park on Wednesday 14th February.

Sheena Dempsey, whose delightful animal characters include penguins Pablo and Splash, will hold a workshop for budding comic book creators during her day at the Gloucestershire wildlife park.

Sheena will create a Pablo and Splash illustrated window from 9.15am before hosting a workshop at noon in which she’ll talk about the inspiration behind her book series and graphic novels. There will also be a character design draw-along, a story-building session and a question-and-answer forum. After the workshop there will be a penguin feeding display and a naming ceremony (2.30pm), in which two resident penguins will become officially known as Pablo and Splash. Sheena will complete the day with a book signing at 3pm.

There are daily keeper talks and feedings displays throughout Half Term.
