RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch 2025
Telling us what you saw
When do I need to send you my results?
Please tell us what you saw at www.rspb.org.uk/birdwatch by 23 February. By giving us your results online, you’re helping us to spend more on saving nature as it reduces our costs. However, if you prefer to post us your results, you can print and complete the form found in the guide, and send it back to reach us by 18 February. Please take a look at the guide before printing, as it may be that you don’t need to print it all. Every piece of paper saved is better for nature!
Can I send my result by post instead of online?
The easiest way to tell us what you saw is by adding your results online at www.rspb.org.uk/birdwatch. This helps us to spend more on nature as it reduces our costs – and it saves postage and paper. However, if you prefer to post us your results, you can print and complete the form found in the guide, and send it back to reach us by 18 February. Please take a look at the guide before printing, as it may be that you don’t need to print it all. Every piece of paper saved is better for nature!
Birds of conservation concern
The UK Red list for Birds keeps track of population trends in 245 species, with birds listed as 'Red' deemed most at risk. In 2021,Greenfinches moved onto the Red List for the first time.
Back in 1979, when Big Garden Birdwatch began, Greenfinches first came in at number seven, but in 2023 they were down to 18. This demonstrates the devastating population declines seen in these charming little finches, caused by a disease called trichomonosis. We now know that Chaffinches are affected too.
