Garden birdwatching

Robin on bare (winter) tree

Robin: A winter garden bird you can count on!

The RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch was held over the weekend 25 – 26 January this year. This annual winter event gives us a snapshot of bird species, numbers and activity in the UK. Over the years results have built up to show bird population and distribution trends – which are of great help to all organisations involved in nature conservation. The results are now in, with over 7 million birds counted in what is claimed to be the world’s largest wildlife survey! See the Top 10 along with summaries of rarities, which species increased and which decreased on the RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch website.
