Did you know the Garden Bird Survey starts this weekend?

Judi from Art by Judi Lapsley Miller

The annual Garden Bird Survey starts this weekend (25 June - 3 July). All you need is one hour to sit and watch the birds and count who is visiting. You may be surprised at who is around! Find out how to count and how to submit your results on the Survey website (first "read more" link).
You might also want to grab your camera and catch some of their antics. I love photographing my backyard birds, like this funny wee pīwakawaka, who somehow has his head on backwards! 😂
