What do your local birds mean to you? We'd like to hear from people in the UK about how their local bird populations are faring, and what they mean to them. We’d like to find out about your experience of wild native birds where you live and whether there have been any changes over time.
Share Your Observations
Do you notice the same number of birds or fewer? What types of birds do you come into contact with? How has the soundscape changed? Do you ever use apps like Merlin to identify birds? Share your experiences and pictures with us.
