It’s nearly time for one of our favourite Citizen Science events – the RSPB’s Big Garden Birdwatch
It is the world’s largest garden wildlife survey, where every year hundreds of thousands of nature lovers take part, helping to build a picture of how our garden birds are faring. This year it is running from 23-25 January 2026.
Click here to sign up and you can receive an exclusive RSPB shop discount and a free digital or printed Birdwatch guide. You do not need to be an expect as there are plenty of resources to help you. It only takes an hour, so a great activity for all the family or on your own – you don’t even need to go outside!
Alternatively you can print off our handy guides of birds you are likely to see in your Marlow spaces, to submit the data after the weekend. So top up your feeders and let us know what you see land in your patch!
The perfect chance for children to get involved with wildlife.
The competition is open to everyone, of all ages and abilities — except professional photographers.
