BTO Garden BirdWatch
The successful launch of an internet version of the all-year BTO Garden BirdWatch has contributed to a massive rise in participants in December - over 600 new volunteers to provide weekly information on the birds moving in and out of our gardens. The information which they are finding out is fascinating!
Visit www.bto.org and click onto Garden BirdWatch. Things to look out for:
- animated maps showing the arrival of Blackcaps in November
- rapid decline in London House Sparrows, but not so marked elsewhere
- movements of greenfinches into gardens as autumn berries diappear
Why not join the scheme - either electronically or by sending a cheque for £12, made payable to BTO, to GBW (Surfbirds), BTO, The Nunnery, Thetford, Norfolk, IP24 2PU.
