If you want to join in but don't have any feeders already, you can usually find some scraps from the kitchen that the birds will like. Put grated cheese, cake, cooked potatoes, pastry, dried porridge or sultanas out on the grass and wait for the birds to visit.

The bears also made sure they had their counting sheet and a sharp pencil, their bird books, camera and binoculars, and lots of biscuits! Although you only have to count for one hour, the bears enjoyed watching the birds so much that they stayed at the window for over two!

Edward hadn't learned lots of the names of birds yet, so he offered to fill in the counting sheet for everyone.
