The RSPB’s Big Garden Birdwatch is held every year at the end of January. It provides a great opportunity for anyone to get hands on experience of nature conservation. Last January, nearly 400,000 people spent an hour watching their local birds, collectively recording over 6 million birds in more than 200,000 gardens.
If you are a teacher, work with children, or are involved in a children's group, you may be interested to find out more about the Big Schools' Birdwatch. This is a fun way of supplementing the school curriculum and involves the kids counting birds for one hour in schools. It's simple and easy to do, and you can get more information by calling 08701 222793 and asking for a schools pack.
