Just thought i'd let you know about the RSPBs big garden birdwatch taking place on the 27th and 28th of January. All you need to do is spare one hour to watch the birds in your garden and record the highest number of each species you saw at any one time. Once you've done this you can record your results at the RSPBs website, who will use the data to see what the state of our garden birds is. All the info is here, www.rspb.org.uk/birdwatch/index.asp including a recording sheet with pictures of the most common birds on to help with the i.d. Please take part.  Cheers Paul. |

Well seeing as the RSPB place is about 2 mins down the road, I don't think I'll see much different to what they do lol All we have are seagulls and the usual birds attracted to seed feeders.

Be careful April - If you mention you have seagulls someone is likely to want to shoot them. Or bag them and club them to death. They are bound to be rats with something or other!

I do the BGB every year. Tried to get the Cherub to join in last year (aged 2½) but she could only sit still for about 3 seconds !
Maybe she'll do better this year.

Seagulls are scavengers and as such have their place in the world. Never let it be said that RATBUMS are unfair or rabid in any way. Live and let live (except for rats). (oh, and OM's nasty squirrels)...
