What Turned Up in My Garden?! | RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch 2026

Join me in the garden as I take part in the RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch 2026, counting and observing UK garden birds and sharing tips for spotting common species right from home.

The RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch is the world’s largest garden wildlife survey, and every count helps build a picture of how our garden birds are doing across the UK. In this video, I spend time watching the birds that visit my garden, identifying species, noting behaviour, and talking about why citizen science projects like this are so important for conservation.

Whether you’re taking part in the Big Garden Birdwatch for the first time or you’re a regular participant, this video offers a relaxed, real-time look at what you might spot, along with practical tips for bird identification and garden wildlife photography.

👉 Let me know in the comments which birds you spotted during your Big Garden Birdwatch!
