RSPB BIG Garden Birdwatch with We Be Kids
January can often be a time of unease and discontent for people. With the hullabaloo of Christmas over some people can find the 'emptiness' difficult, so it's a great time of year to fill our lives with something that will boost our wellbeing and we have just the thing! At this time of year the birds in our gardens, parks and towns are in need of help to survive the cold winter months. One of our favourite thing to do is care for the birds and the RSPB big garden bird watch keeps us busy for weeks as we prepare with a range of activities. Here are some of our favourite things to do in preparation for the Big Garden Birdwatch
