“But it is important to keep bird feeders topped up and clear of any snow so that birds can spot the food and reach it without using loads of energy.
“As gardeners already know, birds are like an unpaid army of natural pest controllers and they come every day if they feel welcome.
“The fact that they are also such a delight to watch is just an added bonus. We want to support the RSPB event and encourage people to take part in such an important recording of Britain’s birds.”
