British Garden Birds is dedicated to
helping garden birdwatchers to identify and enjoy the birds that visit
their gardens, and to understand the birds' lives and behaviour.
As more and more newly-fledged birds appear in our gardens, it is tempting to want to help these abandoned and helpless looking birds, but the parents are often not too far away. Unless the bird is in danger from cats or cars, or you're certain it
is an orphan, leave it alone.

been late arriving. When did you see your first Swifts in the UK this year?

International Dawn Chorus Day, 5th May 2013, is a worldwide event that
celebrates bird song, but the whole of May is a great time to listen to the chorus. Join in by getting up early and listen to the
birds in your garden or go to a local event.
