The Garden BirdWatch Project Getting Involved Garden BirdWatch is all about getting involved and gathering useful information using simple recording techniques. The forms are easy to complete and all you need to do is keep a simple note of the birds seen during the course of the week. You can note the birds you see over your morning cup of coffee or while working in the garden. How much time you spend recording is up to you. All we ask is that you are consistent from one week to the next. Your Garden BirdWatch observations can either be submitted over the Internet on a weekly basis, or by using special paper forms that cover a 13-week period. The observations that are received are added to the national Garden BirdWatch database, building up a pattern, showing how bird species change their use of gardens throughout the year and from one year to the next. Collectively the Garden BirdWatch results can be used to stimulate research into declining species and to inform conservationists of action that needs to be taken. If you have a garden and you
watch Garden BirdWatch costs just £15 a year and in addition to your count forms you will also receive the quarterly colour magazine Bird Table. All new joiners will get a free copy of the new 128-page BTO/CJ Garden BirdWatch Book (which normally retails at £9.99 plus £3.95p&p).
