Display Panels
The Fylde Bird Club strives to help educate and inform the general public about the birds found within our recording area, and as such the club has provided completed display panels and interpretation boards for a number of local projects to help with their promotion of Fylde birdlife.
The club is always keen to assist in local projects, either with advice, by providing text and images for boards, or by producing the boards ourselves, so if you have a project that would benefit from display panels and would like the input of the club then email us with the details.
Some examples of display panels produced by the club can be found below.

Singleton Village
As part of their impressive refurbishment works of the woodlands around the village, the Richard Dumbreck's Singleton Trust asked the Fylde Bird Club to produce a simple display board highlighting some of the woodland species that can be found in the area. The board is located in Puzzle Wood adjacent to the village church, an excellent area for sighting woodland birds such as Nuthatch, Coal Tit and Great Spotted Woodpecker. |
Rossall Point Observation Tower
The new and improved Rossall Point Oberservation Tower was opened in 2013 and is manned by Wyre Borough Council's Countryside Ranger staff and volunteers. As well as an oberservation deck for bird-watching the tower is used for educational purposes, helping to inform the public about the wading birds that roost on the beach in an attempt to reduce high tide dusturbance to the roosts. To this end the bird club produced a number of large display panels that are installed in the tower, featuring photos and information about the different wader species that can be found on the beaches around the Point. |
Preston Dock Tern Colony
As part of our work at the Preston Dock Tern Colony the club produced and installed an interpretation board, located on the south side side of the docks next to the main area of the colony. The board provides a brief overview of the Common Terns, allowing visitors and locals to gain more of an understanding of the colony as they watch the birds from April-August. |
