Day 5 of #BirdFacts and we're hitting you with some of the smallest birds you can find, Hummingbirds! Did you know that they are so incredibly lightweight that the smallest type of hummingbird, the bee hummingbird, weighs less than a penny?!

Yesterday was the opening night for NST Lab Associates new play Fledglings Missed it? Meet two best friends Alice & Kelsey as they both independently navigate the struggles of leaving their childhood behind & how it affects their friendship 💔 At #NSTCity until 19 Oct 📸 Ali Wright

NST Lab Associates NSTheatres If you're able to catch it before it goes - it's only playing tonight and tomorrow night in #Southampton - I really urge you to. It's a gorgeous little production and feels so nostalgic. #theatrereview #fledglings #nstcity #hampshire

Massive thanks to Joanne for coming along to Fledglings last night and giving us a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review! 'Fledglings is a delicate and touching exploration of loss, growth and identity, peppered with nostalgia, humour, teenage anxiety and the occasional feathered friend.'

Had some really lovely audience feedback from our first night of #Fledglings that we'll be sharing throughout the day! If you've got your tickets booked for tonight or tomorrow's show of Fledglings, make sure you let us know what you thought!

Q: Do you think there was an overall theme or message to the piece? 'Friendship is difficult but magic, like birdwatching' 'A lot can happen between two people and the extremes that we all go to to keep friendships' #Fledglings

Q: Did this play remind you of your own experiences growing up? 'Yes, it resonated with my experiences. Both the characters were so like people I knew at that age' 'Yes! The intensity of childhood and the simplicity AND complexity of emotion growing up' #Fledglings NSTheatres

Q: Has this play made you think differently about female lead stories? 'I love female lead stories, so it lived up to expectations and was really powerful!' 'It was really refreshing to have 2 female leads showing a genuine friendship' #Fledglings NSTheatres

Look who’s here - Chris Packham !! We are excited for him to see NST Lab Associates’s new play Fledglings ❤️ Don’t forget to book your tickets, final show is tomorrow at #NSTCity #ChrisPackham

It's the last day of #Fledglings at NSTheatres and while we're sad it's almost done, we've had a brilliant time with our audiences here at NST City! Make sure you catch us before our last show tonight, 7.45pm at the Studio Theatre in NST City. bit.ly/fledglings2019…

A Saturday Afternoon #BirdFact for you all! Sometimes, the birders are (dare we say it) more interesting than the birds! And Phoebe Snetsinger is perhaps one of the most interesting of those as she was the first person to ever see more than 8,000 bird species in the world!

Sadly #Fledglings had it's final night at NSTheatres and so while the set is being taken down, the company of Fledglings is still celebrating how brilliantly fun this production has been! Thank you to our audiences and supporters, keep your eyes peeled for our hopeful return!

Massive, huge, gigantic thanks to Joanne for naming Fledglings in her top 10 shows of 2019! #fledglings
