Your annual opportunity to check out the birds seen in our beautiful garden squares is next week. Join amateur spotters all over the country in recording birds for the RSPB Big Birdwatch 2026 and sending in your results for your location. Big Garden Birdwatch is the world’s largest garden wildlife survey. Every year, hundreds of thousands of nature lovers like you take part, helping to build a picture of how garden birds are faring. Full details can be found via the link above or search RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch 2026.

Or if you’d like to do some bird spotting in good company, try the group Birdwatch in Lincoln Inn Fields, not far away, on Friday 23 January, 11am-12.30pm, meeting at the cafe.
