I’ve just spent the last hour doing the Big Garden Birdwatch, from 09:50 – 10:50, and here are my results (it’s not too late if you’ve not done it, but too late for Self-Assessment Tax Return!)

  • Blackbird – 4
  • Blue tit – 3
  • Chaffinch – 3
  • Collared Dove – 11
  • Goldfinch – 10
  • Great tit – 1
  • House sparrow – 31
  • Starling – 44
  • Crow – 12
  • Bullfinch – 1

I now know why, the bird seed gets eaten in one day!

Big Garden Birdwatch, 30 – 31 January 2010

Friday, January 29th, 2010

Why not spend an hour this weekend filling the bird feeders and taking part in the Big Garden Birdwatch, 30 – 31 January 2010. Watch the birds in your garden or park for one hour and record the highest number of each species you see at any one time.

Counting birds each year is very important. Information from the Big Garden Birdwatch over the past 30 years has produced valuable scientific data. Comapring the fugures helps us determine which birds are doing well and which are struggling, and so need some action to help them.

I’ve topped up my feeders for this weekend, have you!
