Hi all you Big Garden Birdwatchers out there, are you all excited about the weekend, have you stocked up on bird food to entice the local avian population down into your patch? No, well there is still time, get to it!
If you have and you are all set, why not have a quick vote on this little just for fun poll. We are simply asking you which beverage will you mostly be drinking during this years birdwatch? We recommend getting comfortable with a favourite drink and relaxing whilst the birds do all the hard work, all you need to do is count them as they go about their daily routines!
So pick your most likely beverage from the list below and lets see what the nations birdwatch beverage is!

I sat a my window with a glass of lemon squash.
I took a break between spring cleaning and cooking lunch - so enjoyed a nice glass of Australian red wine whilst my eyes were glued to the window.

It was a nice cuppa T for me! Large mug, of course. But I got so engrossed in wondering whether it was blue tits or coal tits that I forgot my tea and it got cold!! It's rather a grey day here, so the blue of the blue tits wasn't quite as stunning as it is when the sun shines. And they're chopping up a large fallen tree in the woods outside our back gate, so I think that my woodpecker was too shy to come out, such a shame as he is a regular.
Cuckoo by name, cuckoo by nature!!

Goodness me, hot chocolate with chilli!! We voted for coffee although I will be having a soft cold drink. It is our first year too so are very excited and will be perched in the workshop, me with binoculars and husband with new camera probably mid morning when the birds get going.
Has to be double shot flat white for me. It takes 10 minutes to prepare including grinding, tamping, milk frothing and knocking out the espresso "puck" before it sets like concrete. But it's well worth the effort.
Every day a little more irate about bird of prey persecution, and I have a cat - Got a problem with that?
You should have put ginger down for us Scots. ;)
Should have taken tea as it was baltic here.
