It is the RSPB Garden Birdwatch this weekend - https://www.rspb.org.uk/get-involved/activities/birdwatch/?channel=paidsearch&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIj-XWjKT22AIVb7XtCh0lUg3mEAAYASAAEgJxz_D_BwE I don't think I'll be able to do mine tomorrow so hopefully Sunday I'll get an hour to watch the birds in my garden. |

Thanks for the reminder Grayling. Did an hour this morning and it was very productive before the rain set in. |

Bot bad at all John, we managed 13 species in an hour but it's a shame that they don't do it over a longer period, say a week or so. |

We didn't do too badly, 11 species although we had 19 species in the garden in total that day. Garden Birdwatch rules are stricter though as flyovers don't count. Blackbird 3 Goldfinch 6 House Sparrow 5 Siskin 12 Chaffinch 30+ Blue Tit 2 Greenfinch 4 Brambling 2 Robin 2 Great Tit 1 Starling 2 Earlier in the day we'd had 12 Goldfinches, but I was pleased the Bramblings made an appearance at the right time. So far this month we've had at least one Brambling every day. |
