About the event
Join St Marks as we take part in the RSPB’s Big Garden Birdwatch.
The annual birdwatch weekend is back on the 27th – 29th January, and we invite you to join us in counting and spotting the birds that fly through, and those that make St Marks Shopping Centre, Lincoln their temporary home
You’ll find us on the bridge by the car park for the first session, 11am-12pm or the second session at 12pm-1pm on Saturday 28th January.
Everyone attending, will also take home some bird seeds to feed the birds in your own gardens, or local park
Big Garden Birdwatch is fun, free and for everyone. Counting birds with us at St Marks will play a vital role in helping the RSPB understand how UK birds are doing.
The fact that we’ve lost 38 million birds from UK skies in the last 50 years underlines that nature is in crisis. We see it in our own back gardens with house sparrows struggling and starlings undergoing a severe decline. As a conservation charity, the Birdwatch results help RSPB monitor how our UK birds are faring in the face of the nature and climate emergency.
By taking part in Big Garden Birdwatch you, and hundreds of thousands of other like-minded nature lovers, will be taking action to protect our birds for generations to come.
