Who is doing the Big arden Birdwatch this weekend? I'm just about to start now.

My cat cobbled up my data this morning when he brought in a dead thrush - I guess I can count it as having "seen it in my garden".....

i saw a song thrush and they have been a rarity in my garden for the last couple of years!

[boxtops]

Hope you don't live near me, it might be a minus thrush by now!

i have a cat too, but he is too slow!

Yes I''m doing it but guess what , my usual visitors are not showing up this morning.

They never do do they garner? And if you're going to get anything a bit unusual they never turn up on this weekend. I had 2 moorhens in my garden last week - but they're sure not going to show up now, it's as if they know!

I just have the usual visitors in my garden - nothing as dramatic as a moorhen!
I did the birdcount this morning and after 30 mins thought that I must have seen the maximum amount of the usual lot. However a minute later a couple of goldfinch appeared. I hadn't even thought about them. There are usually approx 10 at my feeders but I only spotted 4 in the Birdwatch hour - grrrr!!!
