This year was no exception and Primary 5\/6 and members of the Eco Committee spent an hour recording the different birds in our school grounds.\u00a0 This serves to help scientists to monitor survival of birds across Britain in the face of the climate crisis.<\/p>\n<p>Pupils put bird seed out into the upper school yard to attract birds and waited patiently for them to arrive. Using binoculars, the pupils identified and recorded the maximum number of each type of bird that landed in the grounds at the one time so there were no duplicate birds who fly away and then return being recorded. We saw 2 Blackbirds, 6 Black-headed gulls, 1 Blue tit, 4 Carrion Crows, 5 Coal tits, 2 Magpies, 3 Robins, 1 Song Thrush, 10 Starlings, 4 Woodpigeons and 2 Wrens. This information was uploaded to the RSPB website to make our results count.
