Birds of Bolton is a new, immersive exhibition taking place at Bolton Museum featuring wildlife films, drawing activities and trails to a life-size bird hide. The show has been inspired by a recent donation of a large collection of sketchbooks by artist and naturalist Eric Gorton. Dating from 1947 to 1998, the sketchbooks are the record of a lifelong love of birds and other wildlife. Gorton’s drawings capture the rich diversity of Bolton’s bird population showcasing their shapes, colours, behaviours and habitats.
