RSPB’s Big Garden Birdwatch 2025

The RSPB is running their annual Big Garden Birdwatch weekend between the 24th - 26th January 2025; the animal team at Knockhatch are getting involved and we’d love it if you did too. This annual event is crucial for helping scientists understand what’s going on with our garden bird population and getting involved is both fun and simple! All you need to do is count the birds for one hour in your garden, from your balcony or a local park. You can even count them right here at Knockhatch if you are visiting us over the weekend. The RSPB has created their own ID chart that you can use to identify the birds you see!

For more information about this exciting event have a look on the RSPB’s website. If you would like to take part at Knockhatch we will be providing print outs over the weekend for you guys.

To highlight the importance of our native bird species and what you guys can do to help them, we will be doing a talk every day of the Big Garden birdwatch weekend at 1:30pm, in the conservation garden, just after our 1pm Owl Show. Hope to see you guys there!
