The Big Garden Birdwatch 2020 is in sight!
In just over a month, the Big Garden Birdwatch 2020 will take place. The Big Garden Birdwatch 2020 will take place between the 25th of January and the 27th of January 2020.
What Is The Big Garden Birdwatch?
The Big Garden Birdwatch happens annually now, every January.
It is an annual wildlife event that happens every year to help birds and wild animals. Every person who takes part in this event will count the birds that they see in the garden over the course of one hour. You will also write down what other wild animals you see in your garden.
Those who don’t have a garden can take part in their local park, or nearest nature place.
Everyone who signs up to the Big Garden Birdwatch will get their own pack from the RSPB (as it is the RSPB that runs the event).
