The RSPB's Big Garden Birdwatch returns for the 46th consecutive year next weekend [24-26 January], with hundreds of thousands of people expected to be watching and counting the UK's garden birds.

The world's largest garden wildlife survey, which has been taking place since 1979, has since become a much-loved annual event that helps give the RSPB a valuable snapshot of how our garden birds are doing in the UK.

Over that time, 172 million birds have been counted and nearly 11 million hours spent watching garden birds.
