Big Garden Bird Watch Results 2018
Monday, 16th April 2018
Long-tailed tits increased by 16%, Goldfinches were up 11%, and Coal tits up 15% on the figures from 2017.

Unfortunately, results have revealed a dip in our solitary species, such as Robins (down 12%) and Blackbirds (down 18%) as these have spent more time away from our gardens in search of food. It is normal for more food to be available in the countryside during a mild winter, which means birds are less likely to visit our gardens.
