This weekend is the garden bird count here in Holland. I took part today - there is nothing interesting to report - just the usuals showed up in the hour watch. It was disapointing as I know there are definitely more that come in on some days.

12 House Sparrows
6 Starlings
1 Robin
2 Collared Doves
2 pigeons
2 Blue Tits
2 Great Tits
1 Dunnock
1 Blackbird
1 Jackdaw

Last year I was able to add a Blackcap and chaffinch to the list, they have been replace by the pigeons - not a good swap really!

I notice that in Britain it was also the Big garden birdwatch" this weekend! Anybody taken part yet?
