The RSPB's Big Garden Birdwatch returns for the 46th consecutive year between the 24-26th January.

Hundreds of thousands of people expected to be watching and counting the UK's garden birds.

The RSPB explain that to take part:

1) Get your free guide and stock up on supplies, with 20% off and free delivery on food and feeders at the RSPB shop.

2) Spend an hour watching the birds in your patch, between 24 and 26 January, and record the birds that land.

3) Tell us what you saw (even if that's nothing at all)! You can submit your results online or by post.

116 different species of birds were seen in Hertfordshire over the past month according to eBird, one of the world's largest biodiversity-related science projects.

Across the UK, over 600,000 people took part in Big Garden Birdwatch 2024, counting a whopping 9.7 million birds!
