Garden Birdwatch by rosiekind

Garden Birdwatch

I did my bit for RSPB between 2.30 and 3.30 this afternoon and I counted 46 chaffinches which are the most common birds I get in my garden followed by 24 goldfinches and 20 greenfinches. I liked this pic because it shows the sun was shining on his little body

Looks like hes getting warm in the sun!

Looks very plump - all credit to you and your endless supply of bird food. Lovely shot

Did you get 46 chaffinches all at once? That must be a record!

A really beautiful capture, lovely colours. You garden must be a bird sanctuary!

Beautiful shot.

A beautiful shot!! You're meant to count the most which come into the garden at any one time,and record the highest number.Birds are sadly lacking in my garden,despite the food I put out!! Maybe it's because next door's cat spends so much time in our garden.

See we may have got waxwing but we didn't get any of those - did get excited by a female blackcap the other day though but she's probably abandoned me now the snow's gone.

What a beautiful shot. You must have an awesome garden.

@carolmw I should have read what you are supposed to do but I haven't submitted anything to RSPB yet. I will have to estimate how many birds I had at any one go which shouldn't be too difficult. I am a silly billy!

What a beautiful little bird.

What a lovely day for it, and he does look like he's puffing his chest out towards the sun. Well done on spotting so many birds.
