I tett samarbeid med anerkjente ornitologiske organisasjoner og naturverneksperter har vi gjort betydelige fremskritt innen forskning på trekkatferd, hekkevaner og bestandsutvikling.
Disse funnene danner grunnlaget for målrettede vernetiltak for å støtte truede arter og bevare habitater. Vi bruker også plattformen vår til å øke bevisstheten om viktigheten av fuglemangfold.
Som Europas største støttespiller når det kommer til fugletelling, er vi stolte over å være en pådriver for å beskytte våre fjærkledde venner. Vår visjon går langt utover bare det å telle – vi streber etter en bærekraftig sameksistens mellom mennesker og fugler og jobber utrettelig for å bevare disse fascinerende skapningene.
How does the Big Garden Birdwatch work?
On the weekend of the Big Garden Birdwatch itself, taking part couldn't be simpler. You just spend an hour watching the birds in your garden, from your balcony or in your local park, and share what you've seen. If you see very few birds or none at all, that's also really useful information, so please do let us know!
All observation data will be collected and analysed after the conclusion of the campaign. A comprehensive analysis of bird species, population numbers, population trends, and observation locations will be compiled nationwide. The goal isn't to obtain precise population figures but rather to identify frequencies and trends.
The campaign paints a regional and nationwide portrait of bird life in villages and towns. Ultimately, the population data is compared with previous years, unveiling new insights into the development of numerous bird species and potentially regional variations. These results form a supportive foundation for potential bird conservation measures.
We are passionate about raising awareness of the fascinating world of birds while contributing valuable data to the study and conservation of bird diversity. Our mission extends far beyond simple counting; we stand at the forefront of promoting projects that protect and enhance bird habitats.
In close collaboration with renowned ornithological organisations and conservation experts, we have made significant progress in researching migratory behaviour, breeding habits, and population trends. These findings serve as the foundation for targeted conservation measures aimed at supporting endangered species and protecting habitats.
Our commitment goes beyond data collection; we use our platform to emphasise the importance of bird diversity. We take pride in being a driving force in the protection of our feathered friends. We aspire to foster a sustainable coexistence between humans and birdlife, working tirelessly to preserve these fascinating creatures.

The 5 most frequent bird species in the UK in 2024 were:
1. House Sparrow
2. Blue Tit
3. Starling
4. Woodpigeon
5. Blackbird
Big Garden Birdwatch - Results 2023
The Big Garden Birdwatch 2023, which engaged 540,000 nature lovers, revealed interesting insights into the bird population in the UK. The house sparrow maintained its dominance by securing the top spot for the 20th consecutive year, despite a significant decline of over 10 million pairs since the late 1960s. Surprisingly, house sparrow numbers have remained relatively stable over the past two decades.
The Blue Tit continued its streak, securing the second spot for the third consecutive year, while the Starling maintained its position at number three. Woodpigeon, with a remarkable surge in numbers over the last 40 years, held onto the fourth spot, showcasing its enduring prevalence in gardens.
The Blackbird retained its status as one of the most common garden birds, securing the fifth position, and the nation's favourite bird, the Robin, maintained its popularity by holding the sixth spot. The Goldfinch, despite performing well, remained at number seven, while the Great Tit retained its position at number eight.
The Magpie, which has witnessed an increase in urban areas in recent years, remained a non-mover at number nine. A notable development was the Long-tailed Tit's resurgence into the top ten, marking a significant improvement from its 15th position in the previous year's ranking. Overall, the Big Garden Birdwatch provided valuable insights into the dynamics of bird populations in the UK, highlighting both stability and shifts in their numbers over time.
Vivara er Europas største støttespiller for dette verdifulle og viktige vitenskapelige arbeidet
Det er lettest å observere fugler ved en fôringsstasjon. For å kunne se mange ulike arter, bør du tilby ulike typer mat og fôringssystemer - en fôringssøyle til meis og spurv, et fôringsbord til fugler som finner mat på jorden, som svarttrost og rødstrupe, og fettprodukter til stær.
Tip #1
Sett opp en fôringsstasjon
Enten du gjør det med venner eller familie, det er utrolig hyggelig å observere fugler sammen med andre. Ikke minst er det en fin måte å bringe naturen nærmere barna på. De kan både hjelpe til og lære om ulike arter. For å vekke interessen ytterligere kan man for eksempel bygge fôringsstasjoner eller fuglekasser sammen.
Tip #2
Involver børnene
Er det en gråspurv eller en åkerspurv? Bøker eller fugleapper hjelper deg med å identifisere fuglene du ser, og en kikkert gjør det mulig å se detaljene og fjærene enda tydeligere Vår kikkertserie Tringa er primært rettet mot nybegynnere og leverer skarpe bilder til en lav pris.
Tip #3
Bruk hjelpemidler
Fuglekasser og fuglehus hjelper fuglene hele året. Spesielt som hekkeplass vår og sommer, men også som beskyttelse og ly om vinteren. Også utenfor hekkesesongen kan man se en fugl eller to som flyr inn og ut av fuglekassen.
Tip #4
Heng opp fuglekasser
All nature lovers are invited to observe, record, and report the birds in their garden or local park for one hour. Through these reports, we all contribute to creating a detailed picture of the activity of our local birds.

Held og lykke med din fuglekiggeri! Hver eneste fugl tæller!
Give Garden Birds a Home - Preparing for Nest Box Week
Which birds frequent your outdoor space? Is there a particular feathered friend you've been eager to spot? And do you provide them with a suitable habitat?
After exploring the diverse world of birds and identifying population trends through the Big Garden Birdwatch, we are now shifting our focus to the living conditions of our garden birds. The bird count not only showcased the diversity of species but also underscored the significance of suitable habitats for birds. This brings us to the forefront of Nest Box Week, where we address the decline in natural nesting sites and explore ways to compensate for this shortage.
During Nest Box Week, we will provide tips on how to hang up nest boxes, offer insights into which bird prefers which nest box, and introduce you to various materials used for crafting these essential homes. Join us on this exciting journey as we contribute to promoting bird conservation. We are looking forward to Nest Box Week!
