Next week we’re being encouraged to spend an hour bird spotting, either in your garden or near your home.
Make a note of what you see and then send it to Birdlife Switzerland.
The survey has been running for ten years and last year more than 7,000 individuals and families made a note of that birds they could see.
There’s an app available to help you make an identification if you can’t tell the difference between a great tit and a sparrow.
You can get involved by visiting birdlife.ch.
