Big Garden Birdwatch

Post date: Jan 25, 2013 4:25:32 AM

A last minute reminder that the weekend of 26th-27th of January is this years date for the RSPB's Big Garden Birdwatch project. More details can be found on the RSPB website http://www.rspb.org.uk/birdwatch but, in summary, all it takes is an hour of your time to count the birds visiting your garden and log how many of each species you can see at any one time (not the total you see overall. All the instructions, a bird identification guide and the online recording form can be found on the website link above. Maybe you'll be lucky and find a fieldfare like this one which visited a Crick garden to feed on apples during the recent snow fall.
