Next weekend, January 26th and 27th, is the annual Big Garden Birdwatch event where the RSPB ask home owners to set up a vigil in their back gardens to help them know how many birds and which types are still feeding in our UK gardens. A great activity for the whole family, and helping the amazing RSPB at the same time, everyone can get involved in this great event.
For just an hour a day over the two day period the whole family can sit together watching the amazing birds that land in their gardens and then report it to the RSPB for their study. If you are not sure on which birds are which the RSPB have a brilliant website to help you spot the type of birds they are looking for.
You can watch from your bedroom windows, a garden shed or even (if the snow isn’t too deep) brave the outdoors on a garden chair. Always remember to wrap up warm if your are venturing outdoors…this Parrot Hat from Party Domain will not only keep you warm but will also maybe attract rare breeds to your garden! Happy bird spotting.
