                   Dean Birders        

         
The Dean Birders project was the result of two keen birdwatchers getting together and wanting to share their hobby with those 
that have difficulty getting out and about. We want to set up feeder stations and nesting boxes in the gardens of those people that are 
either elderly or have a disability and are limited to the house.
