RSPB Big Schools’ Birdwatch


Skiddaw Class spent an hour taking part in the RSPB Big Schools’ Birdwatch. We watched out from all points of the classroom and recorded what birds we could see. We followed the same procedures as the all other schools, counting only the maximum number of each species we could see at once. The results were collated and we submitted our data to the RSPB website. We also did other bird related activities, including making some true-to-life bird head snappers.

Our full bird list was:

Blackbird 2

Black-headed Gull 1

Carrion Crow 9

Common Gull 1

Fieldfare 2

House Sparrow 2

Jackdaw 6

Redwing 1

Robin 1

Rook 6

Starling 45

Woodpigeon 2
