About this Event
Start your weekend with birdsong and fresh air at Hampstead Heath with Energy Garden.
Energy Garden is taking part in the RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch — the UK’s biggest citizen science event — for the third year running.
Last year, our volunteers counted 40 individual birds across 13 species near 3 Energy Garden sites, helping inform how we design and care for our gardens to better support urban wildlife all year round.
Wrap up warm, bring your curiosity, and spend the morning noticing the birds at Hampstead Heath that live alongside us in the city.
