Big Garden Birdwatch 2018

We didn't have a great birdwatch in Dan's yesterday due to the rain so I decided to do another bird count today at my mum's house.

The weather was cloudy and cold. This is what I saw...

Two for joy - Magpies

Robin #1

Robin #2

Female Sparrow

Starling

Starlings

Male Sparrow

Conclusion:

The Big Garden Birdwatch - 30/1/2018 - 10:00am

• Starlings - 7
• House Sparrow - 6
• Jackdaws - 1
• Magpies - 2
• Robin - 2

Grand Total = 18

Looking at last year's stats the number of Starlings (24 in 2017) seem to have gone down significantly. 

I submitted my results to the RSPB and you have until 8th February to submit yours :)

RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch 2017 - Day 2

On Saturday I took part in the RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch in Dan's garden. Seeing the RSPB added an extra day this year I decided to do another bird count today at my mum's house.

The weather wasn't great - cloudy, cold and showery. This didn't stop the birds coming though. This is what I saw...

Plenty of Starlings

How can you not like this bird with it's stunning colours?
