It’s time for the world’s largest garden wildlife survey! The RSPB’s annual Big Garden Birdwatch runs from 26th to 28th January and everyone can get involved.
 
This yearly survey is a great way to keep an eye on our local birds. Simply count the birds you see in your garden, from your balcony or in your local park for one hour. Sign up here: https://www.rspb.org.uk/whats-happening/big-garden-birdwatch/register
