Here is our Flock of drawings and paper birds at its northernmost point - in An Lanntair, the art centre in Stornoway on the Isle of Lewis, 58.2 degrees latitude. Within the week it is going to wheel around and start flying south again. Go and see it this week in Stornoway if you can!
A migration fact: did you know that an ancient way of counting migratory birds was to look at the face of the full moon and count the silhouettes of birds flying across it? With these clear bright nights you can try it too! However in case you miss our Flock by moonlight, this blog will keep you posted as the birds travel south, heading back to Africa to see out the winter.
